Missing Leaders of the Anthropocene

Posted 29th November 2018 to the Dominion Post Newspaper Wellington New Zealand.



I see Fairfax has opened up a discussion on Climate Change caused by the great Antropocene population Outbreak 
I have observed that the problem with any action is that the population is waiting for leaders to tell us what to do.
I always imagined that the President of the United States would lead the way with a Special TV announcement and was somewhat surprised that President Obama dealt with broaching the issue as a throw away comment to a journalist stating “Of Course Climate Change is Real” in passing.. Only to be surpassed by president Trump’s Chinese Hoax statement a couple of years later.

We seemed to have now reached an impasse where we have a stressed population awaiting instructions and awaiting Leaders. Children & teenagers take it the worst as they don’t get a feeling our civilisation really wants to carry on.

Many Humans are really creative, adaptive and some are very cleaver but really great leaders are very hard to come by.
And we don’t look for them, they have to come forward.
Let’s hope they can get their act together sooner than later.
