The Best Tsunami Think Piece?
Take a moment to read Mick Hume's column at Spiked. It is one of be best think pieces I've read on the tsunami, aligning environmental damage with economic development in a meaningful way. Wordbite:
If some crackpot preacher suggested that the South Asian disaster was God's vengeance for the sins of the tourist trade, there would be justifiable outrage. Yet if today's eco-preachers imply that it is somehow Nature's revenge for the arrogance of humanity, we are supposed to feel humble and nod along, head bowed.
