The issue of Climate Change has gained so much publicity and traction, that I felt the need to try to educate myself during 2022, by reading extensively, both books and journal articles .

And certainly my generation, as we grew up, was taught that it was our responsibility to look after those less fortunate than ourselves. How did that all change?
