Too little, too late

 The climate emergency is here but rather than countries recognising that we only have one planet, which they are destroying, they put making money and retaining power, both at home and abroad, before a common goal of saving the world.  Do they think that when they have annihilated life as we know it on earth that they can just move to mars?  The young have every right to be angry.  The decisions concerning their future are being made by mostly oldish men wallowing in the depths of corruption.

As you drive around France you see men in high visibility jackets ranged around fields and wielding guns.  They put out signs everywhere saying beware of the hunt, take care - hunting in progress.  No, we shouldn't be taking care, you are the ones with the guns and so  far this year a man has been killed in his own garden, another driving along in his car, a grandfather has killed his grandson and a grandson has shot his grandfather,  as well as numerous others.  Yet the government does nothing.  Every year more than 20 people are killed by hunters in France and the people who are so good at protesting, do nothing.  There is now an appeal to forbid hunting on 2 days a week.  Really?  Do they think that will make a difference?

I spent 2 days looking for my glasses and this morning I found them.  They were in my glasses'  case in my handbag where they always are.

French railway workers are striking 2 days in 5 for the next few months in protest against Macron's reforms.  To launch these strikes huge protests were organised in Paris but oh dear the strikers couldn't get there because the trains weren't running due to strike action.

stormy weather

Last evening there was a huge storm, lightning,  wind and torrential rain in Agra. This morning the devastation was clear. No power, 50 dead and hundreds of trees down. On the way to the taj mahal  I could see crushed cars, flooded streets  and so many trees.   Then out of all this destruction I arrived at the taj mahal. It doesn't matter how many pictures you see  they cannot compare to seeing this exquisite building rising up above you.  I have waited so long to see it and  it  is far better than I could have imagined.
