Just a thought #8: Make Money & Save the Earth...possible?
Is it possible to do both?...
…of course it is. Make the most of the trouble we are in by coming up with solutions for governments to buy into. The climate crisis will cost nations between 20% and 50% of their national GDP, so they will have to pay attention eventually, even if it is too late.
An answer for now -

Just a thought #3: 21st Century Politics - Money, Power and... Climate Change
If politics and politicians are motivated by money and power then surely the cost of global warming and climate change is a big enough factor for politicians and governments to take the situation seriously. Climate change will effect between 20% and 50% of national GDP’s if something is not done. So with that in mind maybe money and power is the answer to changing political will.
No earth, no money, no humans, no political power.
Let’s see a new age of political awareness. Let’s not vote unless our children are protected and actions are taken for the solutions already proposed. Neo-classical economics is gone, our place as part of a functioning eco-system, a breathing planet, is now and the direction of our future and indeed our government’s legislation.
Just a thought…
