Sorry Tony,
I don't think this is fair.
If one is longing for sustainable living you have to make a start at one point and then go from there.
And although i've been debating with richrf, mdp and a few others about this I'm quite surprised this is really coming from you.
Since you're also active on FB and most likely have some capetonian friends you probably have seen this post here that has gone viral in SA:

Hence I'm surprised of your trump-like ignorance.
Please excuse my strong language but climate change is neither a political agenda nor it is a freaking joke. It's more about awareness of what's happening around you!
The 20th of may 2k18 is effing real!!
YOU GUYS ARE RUNNING OUT OF F*CKING WATER!! I just hope it won't be as dramatic as forecasted.
And it's not only happening there. there are more places on our lovely planet that are drowning already!
Stuff can get effing dramatic when the sh*t hits the fan!
Ever heard of shishmaref a village in Alaska?

Even China is starting to rethink their ecological behaviour.

So making jokes about this is not only a bit inappropriate and misplaced but completely off IMHO.
