Don't hold your breath on all of this
being done but just talking about it

"'No amount of economic growth is going to pay for the cost of the damage caused by a new and unstable climate,' he said.
"He says that the pursuit of growth, which essentially has not changed since Victorian times, is misleading, and the terms need to be
redefined."
