A debate on climate change happened in my local health food shop and I was surprised to find that so many thought it was a load of crock, this made me just want to find out why they felt this way.

The number one comment was that climate change and going green has just become trendy words for big companies to make money and make people feel guilty into buying their expensive products.

The next, was that the powers that be want the world to go into a certain direction and this is how they get us to follow by using doom and gloom similar to religion.

The debate went into the fact that the earth has always regenerated itself so why is it so important now?

Love to know your opinion on this.

My thoughts on this are no matter what your belief system is telling you it is and always has been essential to the survival of mother earth, human kind and the animal kingdom to respect and conserve the lives and resources available to us. Ancient peoples knew this and only took what they needed, used everything and recycled before recycling became cool.
