Letter: Climate, COVID both like a badly leaking roof

MORNING SENTINEL • November 21, 2021

Seems that these days there are a lot of people dragging their feet about doing anything to correct the effects of both climate change and COVID-19. Many state the reason for doing little or nothing is that to correct these problems would cost too much in either money and/or human wellness and freedom. Compare this lack of action to one who delays fixing a badly leaking roof. As for doing little or nothing (not getting vaccinated and not wearing a mask), the delay and denial ended up costing more in money needed to correct, a failing economy, and hundreds of thousands of more lives lost. It’s not too late to still do the right thing. ~ Peter P. Sirois, Madison
