With politics being so horrendous at the moment, I do worry that some of the BIG issues are taking a backseat. Liz Truss has stepped down and we yet again have a vacancy for a new Prime Minister. All of this squabbling is stopping us progressing with many important matters, including global warming. The Climate Crisis cannot be forgotten.
Energy is widely spoken about as expensive but we need to remember that current sources of energy are largely polluting. We must ensure that our concentration turns in the direction of making us energy efficient and self-sufficient. Surely this can easily be achieved by using the huge profits that oil and electricity companies are making. It could quickly be invested in wind farms, hydro-electric facilities and solar panel fields.
At the same time, high temperatures of around 18 degrees in October is definitely unusual. Daily averages used to be around 10 degrees but we are now seeing warmer, wetter days. All we see on the News is bickering. What we should be seeing on the News is discussion about how we are going to reverse global warming.
This was just a quick reminder that CLIMATE CHANGE is still happening. While leaders argue over tax for millionaires, the world is in trouble.
Polar bears and seals are losing their habitats. People in Pakistan have lost their homes in floods. Forest fires have wreaked havoc once again in America. The situation is definitely worsening.
I hope that we can soon get back to dealing with the things that really matter. The climate crisis should be top of the agenda.

Agreed. I’m in America, but I’m seeing the same things.
It is sad.
Well, there a lot of things going on with the world nowadays. I was surprised how fast she was dropped. Hope things get better for the UK.
Yes she only lasted six weeks.
Living in Florida ever year is keep a feeling warmer and warmer.
I agree, things that need to be addressed and continually worked on are being pushed to the side. We must keep progressing on the climate issue. I always enjoy reading your posts and learning more about how I can make positive changes. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you. I hope people keep remembering.
Yes it is sad because countries that were already hot are now boiling.
I couldn’t agree more that the environmental crisis need to always be in the forefront.
Definitely.
