Pretty concerning video from @maxigan. Deforestation and steeling the water from the people is a problem all over the world. It's the extremely hot and dry places that suffer from the consequences more so that no-one can say that it's just people imagining things. And yes, I think it's always best to look at what's happening in your own country first and try to do something about that, but it's also vital to support people taking action in other countries because we are all citizens of this world and deforesting in Australia or for instance Brazil, affects me here in Finland too. But as I said, there are problems in Finland too and I need to do everything I can to that.
Sad thing about climate change is that after we've excluded people who do not even believe in it, or do think it's true but do not consider it as an urgent problem, we are left with those who do know better (or say they do) and agree that climate change is problem number one.
But. There's always a but. Of those people left there are the ones that are not willing to actually do anything else than perhaps few meaningless donations, sing for saving the climate around a bond fire made of empty promises and polish their appearance talking about that we should do something about the climate change. They say that they are doing anything they can, but aren't. Because it's much more easier to continue with the life they now have, do no drastic changes, not except the fact that everything we do, each of us, affects the world and the climate. In good or bad way. And it's escalating. Everything that changes things for the worse for the environment, causes more bad things that cause more bad things that cause more bad things. What we are doing is putting out the candles while the whole roof is on fire. Figuratively speaking in this case.
