Being Green, Politics and Economics
May 22, 2009
It seems like a lot of people are at least trying to go green these days. Whole companies make their living through pushing the green scene, selling services such as energy performance certificates, auditing homes and reducing people’s carbon foot print.
I try not to think about it too much; I recycle glass and cans, plus I always give my old clothes to charity. I do think that our generation need to sort out poverty as well as the whole green issue. The country seems to be in such a mess at the moment though. Recently it seems like a case of, where do we start?!
I’m 26 years old and I can state for my generation that we are completely detached from our countries economic and political agenda. We have not got the UK into the situation it is in now and yet don’t seem to have much of a say about sorting it out. I personally think that in a couple of decades we’ll be left to pick up the pieces of a broken Britain.
I think that there should be a complete cull of politicians; the expense row gives the perfect excuse. The majority of them have taken the complete piss and should go. The government needs a wider variation of people in terms of age and wealth, not just race. It may then be possible to say that the government is making decisions for the whole of the UK, rather than just a small percentage of the public who like in a) London and b) are old.
