When the rich use private jets to pollute the world, why you might as should we mere mortals be concerned about our emissions?....

Well, of course, there are good reasons we should, but the notion that the rich & powerful might lead on the green agenda is made ever more implausible by such practices.

When you realize it's too late to turn back give a good yell! There is no one around. Squat. Slide slowly down the steep parts on your bum. Take deep breaths. Watch out for the barbed wire on your right and the long drop off the cliff on your left. Be comforted by the sweet faces of cows. They don't know what a burger is. Ignore the to-the-top-of-your-head hammer pounding in your ears. Cry out to your loved ones who are dead. They won't hear you — but you'll feel closer to them when you glare down at the abyss. Listen to the surf crashing on the beach. The breaking up and letting go. It has a kind of seeing without eyes. And your whole body knows this. And your whole body knows this.

The edge of a concrete fence post up close, with bushes and branches in the background. On the edge there are two little patches of moss, like miniature green hills, with long brown fuzzy stalks growing out of them.
