Why am I posting articles on climate change and the destruction of our world's environment. It's not going to effect me personally. I am 69 years old and may have a few more years left. My children are in their 40's and given a life expectancy of some 70 - 80 years they will see their world gradually crumble. My grandchildren are early teens, again with a long life expectancy (perhaps). Their life expectancy may be much shorter than 70 - 80 years when there is little food and water available, when war may be the only solution to obtaining scare resources and perhaps even the major part, or the whole, of Earth is uninhabitable. You who read this are in the same boat with me. A boat that is leaking and sinking and will take all of of us down with it.
That is why.
