Jacob Bronowski "we have to touch people" HD 720p
So eighty years after Europe's flirtation with Adolf Hitler, here we are again, shedding tears for a dying planet under the vicious uncompromising jackboot of absolute power stomping on the biosphere. The global #GreenhouseMafia are so obscenely greedy they DO NOT CARE if they destroy civilization and cook the planet, as long as their wealth and privilege means they are the last to fall. Sad.
#COP23 might be the last chance for enviro NGOs to disrupt/derail the deeply flawed and compromised UNFCCC process into admitting they've gotten it terribly,fatally wrong. They have been irredeemably corrupted, captured by crypto-fascist neoliberal nasty people. Official COP23 attendees listen to the environmental NGOs (the ones who are not also captured): "You must go back to the drawing board and build an evidence-based credible zero carbon global economy from the ground up." SIGH
When you are in a hole, STOP DIGGING! "I beseech you in the bowels of Christ, think it possible you may be mistaken." --- about the dire threat of runaway climate change, and its potential to kill your very own flesh and blood (your DNA down through the future sustainable anti-capitalist ages: milennia of Earth-healing & restoration of the biosphere). Tony Abbott, Martin Ferguson, coal industry lobbyists, yadayada, etc, etc, etc, the whole damned lot of you. A pox on all your houses until such time as you recant your poisonous ideology. Let's pledge to be best mates after said recantation :-)
