Letter to the editor: Confronting overconsumption

Notes: "Bishop Mark MacDonald ('Learning to live right', Sept. 2017, p. 5) is right. Overconsumption in the Western world is a core driver of and contributor to world poverty and climate injustice". "However, here precisely is the rub: where to start ? Who is blameless enough to cast the first stone ? This is not government's problem: it is our problem, laid at the door of each and every one of us". "What is needed is a concerted approach that involves everyone who can be counted as 'guilty' in this seriously disturbing matter".
