We appear to be sleep walking into an environmental disaster

It would seem that the good people of Uxbridge would rather vote Tory and choke on pollution than move towards a new cleaner environment for our children. Meanwhile, people around the world are either burning or drowning in the wake of manmade weather changes.

Meanwhile, a study published in the journal Nature Food states that a vegan diet leads to a 75 per cent cut in environmental damage. Any chance of either this government or Keir “I hate tree huggers” Starmer promoting real change for environmental protection? I think the answer is a resounding no. We appear to be sleepwalking into an environmental disaster. I’ll be voting Green at the next election. I hope more people do too before it’s too late.
