The politics of environment

I guess many who will read the title will understand what I am going to say here today. For years now people would have realized that the climate all over the world is changing; and a change that is drastic and not good for the people who live in it. There have been numerous debates on how we humans are killing our planet earth by use of fossil fuels etc. Numerous discussions but all in vain. Few of the optimistic ones will say that they are not all in vain and that we need to do what we need to do. I agree. Totally. But I want to ask the politicians and the capitalist class. How much is enough? The nexus between corporate and politics (or politicians) cannot be ruled out. It has been seen time and again how these 2 class of people make or break the nation. But now the things have taken a more uglier turn. The same class of people are working towards making the world an unsafe place to live. How many planets do they think they have to live? They live in the same planet and they themselves are killing it.

At this point I remember the tale of "Kalidas". It is said that as a kid he was cutting a branch of a tree on which he was sitting on. I want to ask the modern day Kalidasa's; do they really need to be a moron to understand what wrong they are doing?

All the environmental pacts have been disregarded and oil still claims to be the most prized possession in this world. The alternative sources of energy are discouraged, so that people can claim supremacy in this world. "What world?" There will be nothing left of it you moron.

I remember watching a number of documentaries and feature length movies where scientists etc. come forward and explain in plain English what is going wrong and where are we heading to. I say that even a layman can understand the movie or the documentary. What I fail to understand is what are these politicians and corporates made of that they do not understand the depth of their doings (or wrong doings).

A small number of world's population is denying the rest of the world from their right to live. I stand in contempt.

May God give them some brains in their puny little heads to understand that it will also be their sons and daughters and their families beyond who will suffer for something that they are doing now.
