Number one is to stop the destruction of the rain forest - the lungs of the world .
It’s nothing to do natural changes MAN has and is systematically destroying the rainforest which has a drastic effect on world climate .
Head in the sand mentality may be comforting and is ok for oldies we have lived our lives but a limited time left on this planet .
It’s is for the future of humanity and life on this planet ,
Once again you have taken up the batten offered by the BBC and David Attenborough.
For a start we have no right to take the high moral ground considering the destruction we have unleashed on our own green and pleasant land with the recovery of coal, stone, tin, lead, iron ore and many other minerals too many to mention.
The whole of mainland Britain was once covered with forests, hence the coal and North Sea Gas. How come we have the right to tell some farmer in Brazil or any other country it was alright for us to benefit and get rich from the bounty of the land, but you must remain in poverty and leave the forests alone. Unless you want to police the world with a one world government....
Ask yourself this Muddy. If things are as bad as it's made out they are, why aren't the major mining and oil and gas companies made to cease their destruction of the planet? They are barking up the wrong tree making the average person feel responsible. If things were rationed we couldn't change our vehicles every other year, or throw out things that could be repaired.
You can't blame the people for wanting what is available. Stop this availability by producing less, and then things will become more valuable and worth repairing or keeping longer.
The answer is: You can't! because the big multinational companies make the rules, and no country want to see it's residents out of work. Globalism is the monster you need to defeat Muddy, the majority of stuff you buy comes from far off lands and controlled by people far more influential than any government.
