Sustainabilty

If sustainability is defined as “the capacity for the biosphere and human civilization to co-exist” and by ‘biosphere’ we mean the sum of all the ecosystems, then there is plenty to be done to ensure the co-existemce continues for the next few generations at least.

It seems ludicrous that some nations are not taking the sustainability issue seriously. How many indicators are required before there is general consensus that global warming is a fact?

Will pretty pictures make things clearer? Will the voices of the next generation be heard? In the midst of a pandemic, it’s not going to be the top priority, but when the dust settles, saving the planet should be front and centre.
