Nature Loss Huge Compared To Financial Problems

It seems like we can't turn the TV on these days without there being some depressing story about the financial markets, but I read an interesting article on the BBC about how the environmental problems we face will cost many times more than this financial crisis ever could.

It's an interesting way of looking at things, and I certainly can believe that it's ttrue.

I have felt for some years now that human greed and hypocrisy will cost us the world.

Have to agree with Mudskipper, money will always take charge of the worlds future. Until we in the developed world get out of our ivory towers and actually help those less better off the rainforest will still be cut and Asia will still pump huge quantities of pollutants into the atmosphere.

RE: Nature Loss Huge Compared To Financial Problems

To be honest i can`t be ask to reply to this topic with my opinion because the way we put money before animals and the environment is part of the reason why i`ve suffered with major depression.All i got to say is b****y money

If my spelling sucks it`s because i type too quick and then hit post before checking.
The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, not to worry about the future, or not to anticipate troubles, but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly
