IT’S TIME TO ACT ON CLIMATE CRISIS

-

THE time for politics and talk is well and truly over, regarding climate change.

It’s not a matter of money any more; if we wish current children of the world to have a world they can live in, we must act now.

Science has known about climate change and predicted the outcome for “lack of action” for more than 30 years and absolutely nothing major has been done.

If we don’t start now, we will experience far more severe problems, we have only experience­d the “tip of the iceberg” as yet.

When food shortages and major worldwide supply chain problems really hit, chaos will reign.

Already poor farming techniques and over use of fertiliser­s, pesticides and experienci­ng drought have caused desertific­ation of vast amounts of once arable land the world over.

To coin an old phrase, “It’s Time!” Vote for the party that will actually do something about reversing climate change, not just give it lip service.
