COP 26

J'accuse

COP 26

So, they're finally speaking. 
After decades of us screaming. 
The dark time, 
That is now. 

They are finally speaking 
And I cannot stand the hearing. 
The fucking words they use. 

The Johnson says the issue is a Bondian villain. 
A bomb we need to defuse. 
Well come on BOZO7, 
red wire or the blue one, 
please just fucking choose. 

Please. 

Listen to the learned. 
Terminators laying out truth. 
Listen to the suptle unsaid. 
"J'accuse" 
"J'accuse". 

Don't waste this chance on rhetoric. 
On measuring soundbites in the loos. 

You've had your three ring circus. 
The promised five minutes just to you. 

Now get your heads in tune. 
Believe in all possibilities. 
Recognise responsibility. 
See what we can do with our abilities. 

Then come back to us, the people. 
Those with everything to lose. 

        Come back to us 
             The people 
    And finally fucking tell us 
   WHAT YOU ARE ACTUALLY                 GOING TO DO

We need action not talk. Talk is all very well but it is action we need and we need it now. Great poem Nigel. And it's good to see you on here again... You have been missed x

I paid attention to the G 20 Summit far as I’m concerned all they said was blah blah blah blah blah and Biden laughed and said what did thay say

Great post, yep I agree action has to happen. Sadly it’s all talk and no real action. I don’t think our world leaders will ever get there hands in deep enough to make a difference. It calls for huge changes and as always we humans leave such things to the last minute. Which when it comes to the planet, we just can’t afford to do. 

Love your frank post though, I hope people take notice. Sadly all the noise in the world and all the heat and floods doesn’t seem to be doing enough to wake people up 

Thanks for sharing

They just need to listen to those who have been getting their hands dirty looking for solutions and act to enable those solutions to work. Unfortunately that's weather or not it's in their self interest. Some chance

Absolutely. And there are so many great new inventions and people coming up with ideas that work with the earth rather than stripping it. Sadly it does fall into hands that currently don’t seem eager to make a sufficient change
