Global warming: an ambulance at the bottom of the cliff?
Manage episode 346394253 series 3380346
Worship Leader: David Hines
Recorded at Auckland Unitarian Church 6th November 2022
The image of an ambulance at the bottom of the cliff is a common one in politics. Left-wing and right wing politicians both use it for different policies.
Left wing politicians use it to say: let’s not be tough on criminals, let’s spend money on fixing the social background that made them that way.
Right wing politicians use it to say: let’s not throw money at unemployed people; let’s spend it on getting people back into their jobs. The national party raised this in a speech last week.
I think, there is a place for both. Sometimes we need to look to the long term, and we call it a fence at the top of the cliff.
Sometimes we need compassion now and we want an ambulance at the bottom of the cliff.
