Last week a friend of mine announced, mere moments after I brought her up on putting her soft plastic rubbish in the wrong bin, that she doesn’t care because she doesn’t think global warming is an actual thing. Needless to say, I nearly fell off my chair. Aside from the fact that it made me seriously question our friendship when two people can hold such opposing opinions (well it’s really more than just an opinion for me, as climate change dictates how I live each day and seeps into my daily life decision making). It left me wondering how a great deal of people can be so convinced that climate change isn’t just a fictional narrative that most of humankind is currently conversing.
