Conferencia sobre clima en Bali. Quién paga la factura?

Nosotros, evidentemente:

For example, 19 MEPs, accompanied by advisers and staff, are in Bali, staying at a luxurious spa hotel. Not only will their fares, meals and accommodation be paid for by the rest of us, but they will also claim a further £95 per day.

Our purpose is not just to mock the attendees. No, we have a deeper objection.

The Bali summit represents much of what is wrong with the green movement, in that it elevates intentions over results. The supposedly ethical aims of the conference are presumed to render irrelevant the pollution engendered by its delegates.

No, the Bali meeting is not really about doing anything. It is about feeling smug; and getting paid for it.

Pero no se alarmen. Lo que van a cobrar los prebostes asistentes a la conferencia es apenas una propina.

Si conseguimos actuar, pensar, sentir y querer ser quien soñamos ser habremos dado el primer paso de nuestra personal “guerra de autodeterminación”. Por esto es importante ser uno mismo quien cuide y atienda las propias necesidades. No limitarse a sentir los beneficios de la libertad, sino llenar los días de gestos que nos permitan experimentarla con otras personas.
