Dear Neil
Thank you for sharing the article and your kind comment. One has to remember the discussions in Sharm, Egypt and previous conferences on climate change. Unlike the frogs we know (at least I know) the problem). The fact is that largest pollutants and those that affect the climate are the big countries and worse than these countries the big companies that have control both politics and economy of smaller countries. A new form of colonization. I will be happy to argue on this. Citizens of big or small countries fight for better environment, no pollution, climate change, but the result is promises to do something about it. The result is heat waves everywhere, as you can feel. Those who can afford air-conditioning in cars, in supermarkets, in homes and everywhere are not “effected” by climate change and they don’t care.
With kind regards.
