"We are not going to save the planet by putting our country out of business" says George Osborne, Chancellor, to applause from his Conservative gathering.We're not going to save the planet at all if we carry on with this kind of attitude.
Firstly, we assume that our country is a business (debateable, and if so, sad) and that BUSINESS comes before saving the planet...upon which all our Businesses (and lives) depend. What a tragedy; if there's no planet, then we can't do business...It's not logical Captain.
If every country thinks and acts like this, then our countries will just carry on being self-interested Businesses fighting each other and it won't take us very long to finish off the planet; which will make our country going out of business an utter irrelevancy.
