Wow. This was by far one of the most frustrating articles I have ever had to read. The title “As the world burns” is perfect the perfect title for this piece and goes to show that politics will negotiate, lie, cheat, and steal to get their way, even as the world burns. I am appalled by the lack of concern that the white House has for this issue and the lack of action they have taken to combat it. It is disheartening to see such a diverse group of men and women try so hard to make a necessary change for the health of the environment and fail so miserably. This is the reason I can’t stand politics, politicians, policymakers, or anything of the like.
It is a known fact that global warming is one of the fastest growing threats to our world and that almost nothing is being done about it. The few who are attempting to initiate change are quickly being hushed, bought, blackmailed, or threatened. Before we know it the world will be overpopulated, there will not be enough food to feed us, let alone sustain us, and species will be lack diversification to the extent that our remaining food sources will be taken to the point of extinction by disease.
We need to elect strong, intelligent politicians who are willing to stand up for the environment and bring our planet’s resources back to a sustainable level. Although you and I both know this will most likely not be the case, we can hope.
