Madam, - Should we not apportion the blame for the strange weather patterns and the threat to the planet to the true cause? It is easy to state the obvious - i.e. climate change - but the real culprit is the culture of capitalism.
A society based on profiteering and the gathering of wealth is no more than a parasites' paradise, doomed to failure.
We may be the cleverest animal on the block but we are also the most pathetic. - Yours, etc,
EUGENE TANNAM, Monalea Park, Firhouse, Dublin 24.
