    It has been like this. I think these countries see Guyana and think that Oil extraction is the next big thing. It’s happening in Brazil also.

    Gorilla habitats, forests, and world climate at risk as the developing world aims to maximise GDP using the same methods as the developed world. Sadly, protecting nature still doesn’t feed people, or finance a developing nation.

    To be clear: I’m not happy about this choice but I can understand it. It would be very hypocritical of me to sit comfortably in one of the wealthy, developed nations that has caused climate change, refuses to give up luxuries to slow climate change, won’t implement a carbon tax or a tax on the very wealthy to fund climate change technology, and judge Congo.
