You can’t pussy foot around it, something is broken ”The way we treat the environment”
The Negative Message
Now I can tell you about the disaster that will occur if we don’t fix it – but if you are easily spooked you wont like that, and unfortunately for you you will possibly ignore or denigrate it.
However we can fix it,
So If I tell you this “we can fix it”, you may say “great” then – “somebody else’s problem”, or “I will wait until you have a little more evidence”.
So what we need is for you to put a little more effort into this. Lets call it “Dealing with Problems class 101”
