From the article which suggests that the consequences your quotes mention is as <1 by comparison age doesnt make wisdom a given "In fact worse than that because it does not only affect you. It is more like taking your child to the doctors, them being diagnosed with a potentially fatal nut allergy and you just filling their bedroom with nuts because you are partial to macadamia. Is point two justified? Again, the evidence is pretty overwhelming. The reaction, information and rhetoric from government in the UK to the climate crisis has been dismal. Declaring you will be carbon neutral in three decades or simply announcing a climate emergency falls woefully short of where we need to be. The issue should infuse every sinew of government policy and communication whether this is on the expansion of Heathrow or housing regulations. Government needs to relentlessly signal to voters and partners why this matters. Anything less is a cowardly dereliction of duty."
