THIS is a cautionary tale. It is 11:59pm /December 9, 2015. You fall into a deep slumber. You dream you are the passenger in the 5th car of a 5-car collision. The 4th and 5th cars are metaphors for countries similarly situated as the Philippines in the Climate Change Debate, i.e., vulnerable and shouting out for attention on the world stage; the collision is the continuing saga of the global interplay on Climate Change issues; the car is one’s environment. Your car is badly damaged as a result of the collision.. You feel the loss, the damage.

You now view one of your proudest assets as being brought to a state of great disrepair, perhaps you may eventually declare it a total loss. Or seek out someone of higher authority to make that declaration for you.
