The Great Destruction         


Author: John Jones

Humankind might name our time and the next thousand years, as the
Great Destruction of wild nature in the forests and oceans, etc. This
destruction will not arise from climate change:

Programmes of nature preservation are always accompanied by greater
programmes of destruction in a process that simply wittles away at
what is left.

I will give an example of this wittling away of nature even for the
sake of nature. Here in South Wales, the Assembly government has given
the thumbs up for continued sand-dredging of 100 miles of coastline in
inshore waters. Port Eynon beach has already disappeared, others are
turning to mud, while the 'jewel in the crown' Three Cliffs Bay has
lost 4 metres of sand in the last few years. The argument for the
dredging is that it reduces global warming by not transporting sand
from further afield. The ministers also argue that the beaches are
disappearing because of 'climate change' and that there is 'no
evidence' that dredging is the cause.
