Mike, because it affects everyone, one would think the climate would be a uniting force. But so far, there is no significant evidence of this. Simultaneously that takes trust building and exemplary leadership, which is present in places. President Zelensky in Ukraine and Prime Minister Ardern in New Zealand (dealing with COVID and gun violence). Unfortunately, it is lacking in America, the UK, and so many other parts of the world.

Isolation is enormously harmful. Folk being poor in isolation, sick in isolation, isolated in isolation, etc. Allover destruction occurs when aspiration is shut off, and people feel shut out. The blame game begins, and no one takes responsibility or cares for the other guy.

The energy companies are part of the solution if members of the population want them to be.

Many thanks. Excellent to hear from you.
