Turning tides
'The message, it seems, has finally gotten through: global warming represents a serious threat to our planet. At the recent World Economic Forum in Davos, world leaders saw climate change, for the first time, topping the list of global concerns.'
Topping? While it may have made it above whether or not to have the rose with the airflown strawberries, I'm not sure I read anywhere that it topped very much of anything, other than deciding it's time for one and all (pols, NGOs, biz, media) to move beyond mere rhetoric and act... as in how many acts are there in this farce?
I listened to John Humphrys' interview for Today with 3 of the 'top business leaders' - http://junkk.blogspot.com/2007/01/enjoy-today-tomorrow-is-looking-lot.html - and came away aghast. If that is what passes for leadership, Davos-styly now, we are toast.
