Today I read that, according to the UN, greenhouse gas emissions from richer nations have risen to their highest levels since 1990. We’re moving in the wrong direction, it seems. Greenmonk normally tries to avoid “climate pr0n” but sometimes the cap just fits.
It seems to more that more sacrifices are required. Technology isn’t magic. We need to do more. And what am I doing? Getting on a plane to New York for an IBM event, my second foreign trip with the vendor in two weeks. Are you thinking what I am thinking? More on this later…
One thing that really does my head in though. What’s the first thing I do when I check into a hotel room? Turn the air conditioning off… One thing globalisation can’t mean is a steady 68 degrees Fahrenheit.
