Climate Conversations

Climate change ignored: Intentional ignorance, actual ignorance or is it something that exceeds individual comprehension?


Listen Later

Here at Climate Conversations we are unable to comprehend why it is many people can't understand the threats implicated in climate change - is what we are seeing wilful ignorance or actual ignorance?

The rush to buy the rather expensive Lamborghini sports cars must, surely, be a combination of both actual ignorance and wilful ignorance - read the story "Sold out: Lamborghini cars out of stock until 2024, says carmaker".

And The New York Times tells readers "Europe’s Scorching Summer Puts Unexpected Strain on Energy Supply".

Other climate links are:

"Gas giant Santos accused of 'greenwashing' clean energy claims, in Federal Court case";

"‘One  of the most progressive and environmentally conscious legal texts on  the planet’: Chile’s proposed constitution and its lessons for Australia";

"The age of ‘the car is king’ is over. The sooner we accept that, the better";

"Satellite images, pictures reveal 'climate-induced humanitarian disaster of epic proportions' in Pakistan";

"Australians want green public transport options, and fast";

"Spring to bring fire and flood risk to Victoria, and a new warning system";

"Yackandandah installs first public electric vehicle charging station".

Enjoy "Music for a Warming World".
