One year ago, Greta Thunberg made history in her address at the World Economic Forum in Davos. “Our house is on fire,” she told the world’s political and industrial leaders. “We are facing a disaster of unspoken sufferings for enormous amounts of people. And now is not the time for speaking politely or focusing on what we can or cannot say. Now is the time to speak clearly.” Her words were stunning—clear but confrontational, confident but also beseeching. 2019 was also the same year when we learnt that several countries were shipping tonnes of plastic waste to illegal recycling factories in Jenjarom, Malaysia. A shocking 450 tonnes of contaminated waste were returned to those countries after that. It ’s 2020, but where are we in environmental conservation? Have we done enough? Climate change is the theme for Earth Day 2020 (22 April)—the most pressing topic for its 50th anniversary—and it ’s time we take this matter seriously.
