Climate change: who really cares ?
Climate change. Just another headline, just another diversionary rant for our politicians, just another look at me moment at some overseas climate convention. When there were still borders in Europe, I was stopped to get my passport stamped and the border guard asked me to turn off my car because of the pollution.
Here we are years later driving bigger petrol guzzling resource wasting monster twin cab/cars than ever, we park by the side of the road with motors running for the air conditioning, texting on our phones. The sale of EVs are at best stagnant, no tax advantage there and the HEV myth determines the price of EVs, while we vote unthinkingly for the capitalist climate deniers. Why? Because we don’t care and the people we elect will provide the illusion of doing something to provide the diversion so we don’t have to care .
