Isn’t the world already becoming ‘Green’? Why is Global Neighbourhood still needed?
Things are getting better. People are more concerned with saving electricity and water. Many people how use reusable shopping bags and most people recycle diligently. The media is also becoming more concerned about climate change and educating people. Political parties are talking about climate change and making changes to reduce our carbon emissions. However, much more needs to be done if we are to solve the basic problem of global warming: • Governments need to do more than what they are currently doing. The current round of political promises regarding climate change only skirt around the edges and will not prevent the problem from getting worse. Governments will not do more unless people put pressure on them, and this is what Global Neighbourhood aims to do.
