That will be too late. We all need to do as much as possible now. Why did you pick on Jamaica? - all roofs everywhere across The World can be painted white now !<br /><br />Managing Climate Change, is nothing like having life or home insurance, we do need to do something about it, but it's too late to manage it or pay premiums. Only real action now can hope to ameliorate its unavoidable catastophic effects slightly. You are being arrogant to talk about being too late at some point in the future. That time has already passed.<br /><br />Kind Regards, Neal PearsonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7629638300235721799.post-68834195496235522682009-12-29T09:00:20.918-08:002009-12-29T09:00:20.918-08:00Like flavour of yours, but believe, as does Alista...Like flavour of yours, but believe, as does Alistair MacIntosh in "Soil and Soul" that reason the monster Mammon keeps knawing ever deeper into Earth's entrails is that we are virtually all under the hypnosis of its amoral agents - advertising agencies, corporate PR, political party spin doctors - whose only aim is to keep the machine churning . . . We need to de-hypnotise ourselves, claim our independence and have nothing more to do with the platetary destruction. It's more an inner journey, to start with at least. All that Transition Towns movement (www.transitiontowns.org) supports appears to be toward this sort of end. Try checking your idea out with your local Transition group. You can find them via the map(s) on the site. Emissionary 009. They aim to provide a local forum for us to engage with like minded others in addressing these issues around how come we keep screwing up, even if we endanger the futures of our loved ones in doing so. Formulaic answers seem unlikely, more exploration and action like digging, planting, celebrating together.emissionaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14858923675080738995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7629638300235721799.post-71500261237881524502009-12-27T15:48:58.615-08:002009-12-27T15:48:58.615-08:00oops, the address should be:
