Seems like the reasoning they are going with. Really we need to make it somehow more profitable to do the right/climate focused things.

Exxon produces less than 3% of the world’s daily crude demand and in May its shareholders overwhelmingly rejected calls for stronger measures to mitigate climate change.

Well yes, I wonder if they had a plan beyond the statement.

It’s true, but also quite damning of our whole political system. I just think we’re well past the point of party politics with this issue, it all needs putting aside and we need to see real change.

Nooo, can we just actually put someone useful in the position and see how that will help and improve things?

Well it always is down to something like that, but how depressing. I always think, just how much money do you need?

Also if you are a great business person, why not diversify in what clearly needs to be future tech and infrastructure?

Why are we still pushing for coal mines? I would have thought australia would be ideal for solar in certain places.

I think keeping it in people’s minds is useful. Otherwise it’s easy to get wrapped up in your day to day life. I’ve found that climate stories are often under reported here or categorised as another issue.

I think we all know rapid change is possible if the right motivators are there. Not sure how you get people and legislators to make the rapid change we need.

A few things we can do as individuals is fly less, eat less meat, drive less (where possible).

On a larger scale, write to your representatives, and vote for people who actually put climate change at the forefront of their agenda. It’s now time for us all to be really pushy.

Love this topic! I’m with you on the YA novels, sometimes I just like an easier read, and does loving Harry Potter count?
