To the caller on 720 am this morning.... the 1% myth,

..... Your caller bemoaned the fact that we only produce "1% " of pollution. ( in fact 1.5% ). But the UK and France and other much more populous nations produce similar amounts. And those nations are way ahead of us in rising to the challenge.
We are the worst per capita contributor, we have the bes...t renewable resources and we stand to lose the most ( in one of the most vulnerable continents in the world ).
Inaction is essentially capitulation to the ambitions and greed of the fossil fuel industry and our reverence for a material dependency.
