As a businessman involved in fighting the climate crisis, I observe we face two opposing challenges. Some people still beleive the climate crisis is exagérared by environmentalists. For these people, this is not urgent, we can wait.So they postpone much needed initiatives. Others beleive the opposite. They are convinced we are already very late in making the right moves.And therefore that a strong sense of urgency must be instilled and actions are needed now.The first school tends to encourage decision makers and citizens to be slow or even to wait. The second school tends to induce many people to be discouraged: if things are so bad, why do anything…. So each of us needs to find the right balance: not create a panic but an awareness that builds on will , patience and action.
Yeah!! I’d take it a step further and point to techno-optimists (cc: SF/Bay Area?) heavily relying upon a formula of creating solutions to invented problems. Merci Felix ✨
