There is not enough beer, by Emma Riverola

what will we do when borders overflow definitely in front of a crowd with no possibility of living in their place of origin? How much will we pay dictatorial and corrupt regimes to contain them? Who will govern our countries to save us from these ‘barbarians’? How will we live when we give up rights for false security?

An uninhabitable future lurks just around the corner. A future that is already present for millions of people. Desolation arrives and we still have a hard time looking it in the face. What punishment will Ayuso deserve for his barbarity in deny the scientific evidence of climate change? A handful of memes and an absolute majority? How much is the kilo of democratic resignation? Three rods and a tapa?

The Climate Summit, COP27, is being held in the spa city of Sharm el Sheikh (Egypt) and the 40,000 attendees have come flying in commercial, state and private jets. It’s just an anecdote. But it is the category. A political power that haggles responsibility because a citizenry allows it, because in turn the political power makes no effort to raise awareness. The vicious circle of desolation.

We have experienced it this year. Heat wave: virulent fires: destruction of the landscape: incalculable losses: health effects: sadness… If we lived south of our border, we would be suffering from famine, disease, water wars and forced migration. Give me another cane, Ayuso!

There’s not enough beer to dilute all that nonsense.

But there is still a possible future. Even. But it is only possible if we radically change political priorities and broaden our gaze to global interests. We can also choose the opposite. Bet on those who make fun of all this, suffer the consequences of paralysis and surrender our freedom and our health to those who have lied to us. Incidentally, barley production is also threatened by climate change.
