A call to arms



Click on the image to enlarge.

Will anything positive come out of Copenhagen? The answer is a well known one. It is a resounding "no!". Even as you read this, powerful lobbies are at work, stuffing governments with money and ill-logic. By December, all the selling and dealing will be done. And there will be no remarkable solution, no powerful legislation. Just empty promises.
Then why are we fighting?
Because Copenhagen is not about the government and not about the lobbyists. It is about us. 6 billion of us. It is about making each one of us aware and informed about the dangers we agce as a planet. So we can say NO and STOP to the industries and the businessmen and the governments.
There is no army, no government, no lobby in the world that can stop 6 billion voices.
This is a call to arms.
Talk about the issues that face us. Discuss them. Spread the word. And start making a stand. If we are to die, let us do that with honour. And not with carbon footprints on our faces. That is an ugly death.

  1. Nay! Nothing ever will happen with the exception of well dressed diplomats enjoying light hearted conversations over hors d'oeuvres and cocktails......! In reality, the split over the issue of climate change is alarmingly shameful, something that cannot surely be reconciled at ease in the present form and manner!

    I must thank a friend of mine for having sent me this wonderful blog! Marvelous illustrations marked with candid thoughts in simple and well articulated form!
