I'm not so vain to say I'm in my late 50's. My sadness is the outright denial of the problem at hand. Why I'm depressed for the future is I live in a country where for the last 15 years we've been debating if climate change is actually real. In those missed 15 years we've seen massive environmental impacts to the country, all of which look a lot like climate change. However, as a country and a government we remain blissfully unaware of the problems at hand. So it will take another 10 years of denial before the reality bites, but that will have been 25 wasted years. > There is absolutely no point in reasoning in terms of guilt and apologies. My country and my government still don't believe the issue is real. I'm apologizing for that 'national' ignorance. My life will not be impacted by climate change, but those living 50 years from now will be asking what went wrong?
