One thought on “If We Cared About The Environment Like We Care About Sports”

1. This seems right to me. Last weekend we were sat in the pub with four big-screen TVs around us. They were all showing different European sports highlights and endless car commercials. That’s a lot of happy shiny people who apparently know next to nothing about what’s going on on planet Earth.

   Last week WWF released their Living Planet Report 2014, which says that, among other things, “measured wildlife populations have dropped by more than 50% in just 40 years. During the same period, our Ecological Footprint – humanity’s demands on nature – continued to grow.

   The WWF report didn’t make the front page of any news source I read. What the fuck is wrong with this picture?
