Again George Monbiot manages to offer some interesting comment on what is happening to our economic situation…Having watched Garbage Warrior last night I have come to the conclusion that change is only possible in times of great uncertainty and so can only view this time as positive.
It is unrealistic to think that economic growth could continue in this unsustainable fashion, and so now we have a moment to re-evaluate our relationship with money and wealth. If economics was going to help us then why are there still 1billion people in the world living on less than a dollar a day?
Why have we disconnected so far from the earth that we want to buy everything with a plastic wrapping, and children are growing up not understanding where fruit and vegetables come from…?
Read George’s article…it’s food for thought…
