Comments on: Climate change and poverty: Who will you think about this Christmas? http://blogs.actionaid.org.au/toto/2009/12/01/climate-change-and-poverty-who-will-you-think-about-this-christmas/ Creating blog outposts around the world Mon, 13 Sep 2010 00:28:07 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.4 By: Hannah Jackson http://blogs.actionaid.org.au/toto/2009/12/01/climate-change-and-poverty-who-will-you-think-about-this-christmas/#comment-821 Hannah Jackson Wed, 02 Dec 2009 21:13:00 +0000 http://blogs.actionaid.org.au/toto/?p=360#comment-821 This is really good, Renee. You blend readable, geniune prose with unavoidable facts about the terrible effects of climate change, whilst showing a clear, relatively easy way that ordinary people can get involved in changing things. This is so important, because in the end it needs lots of people, not just the 'activists' of the world to get moving and help be part of the solution. This is really good, Renee.

I can't believe there are people out there that still don't believe climate change is a big problem and that we have politicians in office that are happy to play the 'fear' card by predicting our economy in ruins. It's ridiculous and they need to look at the bigger picture. What is the use of a spectacular economy if we don't have a healthy planet to make a home for everyone (including the poorer nations as this blog succinctly says). I'll happily invoke the mantra "people not dollars" during the next political campaign. Great blog!
