To the editor,

With the most unimaginable flooding in the southern U.S.A. and countless places the world over, one would think that even the most ardent and gullible deniers of pollution, climate change and global warming, would finally begin to see the light.

The citizens of B.C. have the greatest opportunity that any province has ever had to restore our beautiful planet back into the beautiful self-perpetuating glory it once was before greed smitten politicians and corporations got their ugly hands on it. You now have a government whose main objective is to incorporate clean energy into a dying planet and get rid of fossil fuels before it is too late.

If you do not give this government a chance, you will deeply regret it. There will be plenty of jobs rebuilding the new and demolishing the old. We should all become part of the solution instead of part of the problem.

John A. Martin, Nanaimo
