“We cannot base our prosperity on cheating our children and grandchildren" (Tony Kevin)
Just a quick post to point to a nice topical article on climate change denial in Sunshine Coast Eco New:
"Basically, we need to view the issue of climate change through the prism of morality. It was morality, he said, that drove William Wilberforce to help end the horrendous transatlantic slave trade -- known at the time as “black gold”. By the late 18th century, 80 per cent of Britain’s foreign income was related to the slave trade. Two decades later, after years of ridicule and claims that its abolition would lead to economic collapse, the British slave trade was finally ended."
Food for thought..
Your kindly, Bettina
