A Crisis of Environment...


There's a lot of denial about but...

There is no denying that industrial processes have brought pollution to our air, toxins to our waters, poisons to our soil... and that the dumping of waste and plastics has become catastrophic for our eco-systems, wildlife, oceans and nature.

There is no denying that we have lost many species to extinction and that the linked chain of life-forms is disrupted with the loss of pollinators etc.

There is no denying that the atmosphere that surrounds the earth is finite and that much like filling a garage with car fumes... enough toxins in the atmosphere will kill us.

There is no denying that all the above is as a result of what we saw as 'progress' and that if our children are to have clean air, safe water and fertile lands and seas... then we must halt the direction this 'progress' has taken us in and find a better way.

This should be enough for governments to refuse toxic industries and promote/invest/train staff for... innovative, renewable ones. But they're not.

That's insane.
