Have we time to dilly and dally?



With headlines like these it is coming closer to home




Rapid Arctic thawing could be economic timebomb, scientists sayMethane released by a thinning permafrost may trigger catastrophic climate change and cost the world $60tn



America's first climate refugees

Newtok, Alaska is losing ground to the sea at a dangerous rate and for its residents, exile is inevitable.





Syria's exodus: a refugee crisis for the world



• Exodus from Syrian civil war is overwhelming region – UN
• Britain may be asked to take thousands of displaced people
• Aid officials say population flight is becoming permanent.





Surely we must take action before more of what Syria and North Africa are doing , self destruction, or is this just the way the rich and powerful want it, so they can have more for themselves?

Has man the brains to prevent this ?

I believe we have , but we must just use them and not think of ourselves, but of our children and grand-children's future.

Please change the way we tax, and tax the pollution and environmental damage we do , and NOT tax the individual in disproportional ways, as we do now.

Fairness, equality,transparency, morals, ethics, are all aims and can be achieved if we are all treated equally, That is why we need to replace all existing taxes with a single simpler NATURAL RESOURCE TAX
