Another essay that is nothing to do with dogs!
I have long been a subscriber to The Conversation. They seem to be politically neutral as well as giving permission for their essays to be republished elsewhere.

The problem is that CEO’s don’t live in the real world. Hell look at how the brexiters response to brexit was to run off and get an EU passport and move their hedge fund to Ireland or Luxembourg. If they were told that they’d be buried up to their neck at the waterline, trust me they’d suddenly take climate change and sea level rise a little more seriously (not that I’m suggesting we do that…yet!)
