Yep, another victim of filtering which we get told didn't exist when it was presented as 'positive discrimination' at the actual time.

I realised mate, it's just the timing of posting sometimes.

Yes we can, but more importantly we must, because what we cannot afford is to bequeath a future which leads to the death of billions.

We just don't want to afford it, but we can, and the changes needed are really not so onerous.

To speak only of costs is, I think, a misunderstanding. What we need to do is put more resources into ensuring those processes causing the problems are replaced with others that don't. That means a redeployment of people and industries, who will still earn money and make profits.

Our real costs will come with the need to assist others to do the same, which will enable their people to remain and thrive where they are and not be driven to relocate. That in turn will mean they become more effective competitors, which will have its own impacts.

We don't though have a choice. Being unhappy about it doesn't change that.

So long as you continue to think it's only "guesswork" there is little point in trying to discuss this with you. Anyone who thinks that will conclude that the effort isn't necessary.

If and when you change your mind, then we can try again.

Yes we donate very generously, but this problem transcends anything that all the charities in the world could do. We need certainty and commitment and that must come from governments.

Governments who realise the scale of the issue, the need for international cooperation and are prepared to lead us to do what is required, even if that makes them very unpopular.
