Hi Greta Thunberg
Every time you speak
I am very moved
Your simplicity and directness
Speak truth to power
Look to the bigger picture
Relatively speaking
There are too many people
Our power and demands are deadly
It’s not just carbon it’s people
Our planet earth is a dynamic place
Islands form and Islands die
Icecaps grow and recede
Extinction happens
We are not immune
We adapt
We will change
We are missionaries
With a new leader
Speak carefully
Stay Happy
“All of our environmental problems become easier to solve with fewer people, and harder – and ultimately impossible – to solve with ever more people.”
Sir David Attenborough, patron of Population Matters
When David Attenborough was born in 1926 there were 2 billion people in the world, now there are over 8 billion. That is some elephant in the room.
