Empowering versus enabling


Empowering versus enabling

Empowered lots, but are they enabling?

I was struck by

this giant portrait of world leaders

so empowered

but are they enabling

for a better climate change,

a better world?

    Climate change and the environment should not be political but rather a human rights issue. So often times it’s so politicized that nothing gets done.

    China has lied at every conference and Biden wants us to pay for everything, so we’ll just have wait and see what the ‘powers that be’ actually do. [usually their talk is cheap.]

    1. Haha! I am quite lost when it comes to politics! I only know these leaders have a lot of power in their hands to make things happen or thing like wars not to happen… I guess I would understand cooking recipes better!

    2. I don’t know what China lied at conferences.. but I read about how China managed to get its people out of poverty, which many countries need to emulate!
