All these things came under the Global Warming bandwagon to actually get people doing things, because in short, they are dumb and need a bandwagon to do it.
Arr...a man to me heart.

(But not because people are dumb. People need mobilisation, an overarching term, a name andf a narative.
The trouble is, just like the term 'War on Teror', that people mistake the rousing term for the reality. And that everything below the overarching term is made subordinate to this term, rather than the term trying to encompass the manifold reality. In effect, putting the relationship between words and reality upside down.
