Mattieu Ricard blogs on the environment

Don't believe everything you thinkThe liminal space Veteran
Imagine a damaged ship in which it would be necessary to use all the power of the engines to pump the water out from its holds. Where first class passengers want to continue to use air conditioning and other facilities, and where the sole concern of second-class passengers is to upgrade to the first class. Soon, everyone sinks, after using the air conditioner for a few hours longer, instead of everyone being saved. On a normal boat, a captain takes the necessary measures to prevent the ship from sinking. But here, the passengers insist on being their own leaders and taking their own decisions.http://www.matthieuricard.org/en/index.php/blog/
So far the last 5 blog entries are on environmental degredation. Sounds like there's more to come.

The philosopher and the monk is a great book from Matthieu and his father if anyone's interested.
