Thanks Willow,
I know its all very scary, but it is happening and everybody must be made aware. The do gooders can call it what they want, but to say that young children should not be made aware, should not be scared into thinking that unless they clean their act up, they have no future, or the likelihood that their children won’t have one, is wrong. Of course I don’t mean that the infants should be bombarded with these facts, other than being told/taught to clean up after themselves, as is the norm. Giving reasons why that norm should continue on in life, plus the facts that if they don’t they could be contributing to global warming is something that should be added to 11+-year-olds schools curriculums, These and all the facts relating pollution should be down to central governments, and to local councils to make everybody aware at what ever it might cost money wise for the present, because for sure it is, (and is as I write)) going cost even more lives as time rolls on, and that includes the loss of the human race.
PS My apologies Willow, for I think I just had a rant, and I am sure you realise it is/was not directed at you.

Everyone can have a rant. You are right we do need to train the new generations. I think maybe we should start gently teaching them from nursery up. This planet is not infinite. Too much damage has been done already. We all need to do our best. 🌹
