Don't worry about saving the planet, save us!

The planet doesn’t care about climate change, we do!

Earth has been about for more than 13 billion years and we have only been here for about 200 000 years.

What we are concerned about is not the survival of the planet for it will go on regardless of what we do, what we are really concerned about it the preservation of the conditions that have existed for the past 10 000 years and allowed humanity to flourish.

The Huffington Post writing about the World Economic Forum at Davos discussed the dichotomy of thought in a story headed: “Kumi Naidoo of Greenpeace: ‘The planet does not need saving’”.

"The struggle is not about saving the planet. The planet does not need saving," Naidoo said. "This fight is fundamentally about securing our children and grandchildren's futures."
