No room for 'green imperialism'.
The New Sunday Times.
Abstract
SECOND Finance Minister Tan Sri Nor Mohamed Yakcop was quoted (by Time, July 9) using the words "green
imperialism" in reference to countries, which despite taking advantage of China's cheap labour, complained
about her greenhouse gas emissions.
The choice of words is indicative of the hypocrisy practised by some countries. It reminded us of similar terms
such as "ecological imperialism" used to describe the state of the environment as a result of development.
It is appropriate to understand why things are the way they are.
