Climate Emergency

An impending agreement to make shipping the first industry sector with net zero targets has come under pressure from the US, Saudi and Russia and been deferred in London today. Reported basis of arguments, as ever, "cost to consumers". I fear we will be in a toxic soup before long and still be told it's costs and profits that come first.

It's sheer madness, I really fear for what this constant kicking the can down the road will have on the children of today. The cost of mitigating the effects of climate change will only grow, as the weather becomes more extreme due to the rise in global temperature.

We're getting closer and closer to the tipping point.
