There is a growing credibility gap between the seriousness of what we seem to be doing to our planet, and the green discourse and solutions offered. The challenge of saving our pied-à-terre is too big to allow the efforts needed to fall in the hands of other political agendas or pure rent-extracting environmentalism. To stand a chance we need to question all green proposals, without falling prey to a misguided sense of green solidarity. Stop the green waste!
In the midst of this financial crisis with all its bail-outs let us not forget that, when push comes to shove, a climate change crisis is most likely to be a nonbailoutable crisis.
