背景:政府在疫情之中除了民众健康之外,最关切的莫过于经济复苏。但我们在重建经济生活的时候应基于绿色环保的原则,不要忘记回避一个比疫情严峻得多的灾难——气候和支持人类生存的生态系统的崩溃。比如避免“牛津剑桥弧”这样的巨型基建项目。(牛津剑桥科技弧 牛津剑桥科技户计划(CaMkOx Arc)是一个将剑桥,牛津和Milton Keynes联合起来打造成一个科技走廊的长远计划,计划包括近一百万套新住宅和超过150万新增人口及工作岗位。)在疫情之前,该个只让开发商受益的计划就因公众的反对而陷入困境。有些人认为,疫情也许会是让这个项目消失的死亡一击。然而,自然保护组织野生动植物基金会却来了个180度大转弯,将这个项目描述为“自然之弧”,号召人们支持它。这大概是有史以来最离谱的“漂绿”(green wash) 行为了。环保组织本应是帮助我们抵御商业宣传,在舆论场激浊扬清正视听的卫士。然而,他们却正在成为主流利益团体的扈从。
