I don't think that nature or the environment is on anybodys mind in the government right now. The top politicians in most countries have a lot more pressing issues they try and focus on. The times where climate change and global warming was on the front page of newspapers is over. For the past two years the world only focuses on covid, now they focus on Russia-Ukraine war and the ecomic aftermath. Topics like national security and rising inflation are much more important for the reelection campaigns that saving the environment. It feels like that politicians still still don't take the topic serious, even if we can already notice the negative effects all around the world. In my opinion we should give more power to the scientist to save the environment, we can't keep living like this.
Most people in government only think about the chairs they sit in, and how to stay in those chairs for as long as possible! Most governments think of climate change and ecology only on paper and while collecting votes, and in fact, nothing or very little is being done about it!
But they are not the only ones to blame, it could be said that by our "inaction" we are helping to keep the situation the same! Big changes are needed, but it seems that there is no readiness to start with big changes! In addition to readiness, we probably lack awareness! Worst of all is that the problem is growing from year to year, this is what we leave to future generations!
