An excellent summary of where we are in our collective subservience to greed and wilful denial. The worry is that, even with the emergence of a broad public concern about the situation, the economic structures of the most influential nations have put us in a situation where very few of those in leadership roles are motivated to do anything other to continue to deny, prevaricate and fiddle while the planet burns.
Apparently the reason that there aren’t wildfires in the UAE is because the locals are not prone to arson rather than because sand doesn’t burn well. 🤦
