MELTING GLACIERS – A GRIM REALITY



I saw an interview on CNN over the weekend featuring Sean Burch, the American extreme adventure athlete, on his latest record breaking mountain climb. I was attracted to the news piece when I heard his claims about melting glaciers high up in the mountains- a stark testimony to the grim reality of climate change that he witnessed firsthand and shared with the world.  Yes, it is true that glaciers (ice packs) that capped the very high mountains are melting and it is a direct result of global warming. Sean Burch was bold to say it and it is imperative we take him serious.

His declaration is a fresh wake up to cynics of climate change, those men and women in places of power who either pay lip service to the green cause or those who are outright critics of the climate change agenda. We should rise to the care of planet earth for our children’s children to enjoy and this is no mere wishful thinking. Efforts must be concretized that fosters planting of trees, conservation of endangered species, elimination of TFC from the world and pertinently, preparation for acts of God that is ever constant nowadays. We must all sacrifice a bit of comfort to save for the coming generation to use- that is our idea of negawatt revolution at Zeus Energy Limited.

Believe me green people, year 2017 holds a lot of promise for the green planet. In the US, we’d be ushering out an historic era of President Barack Obama who made indelible prints in climate change crusade and would never be forgotten and usher in the presidency of Mr. Donald Trump who does not hide his disdain for climate change. Personally, his brags notwithstanding, I look forward to the new thinking that President Trump would introduce to the green world agenda as he is a seasoned estate management mogul with cognate international experience and initiatives he would have been waiting for the opportunity to turn into policy. Now elected as the Sacred Eagle, he should do well to care for his nest and planet earth.

With this I will take a bow for the year, wishing you green people a fabulous xmas and a prosperous New Year.
Cheers!!!
