Tsunamis, financial and otherwise

Jacques Attali - The disaster we have yet to face


If climate instability accelerates as quickly as the financial crisis has unfurled, if we discover, as in the case of the economy, that not only is there no pilot in the aeroplane, but there is not even a pilot's cabin, then at a certain point the trends could become irreversible. We could even find ourselves in a situation where the global increases in temperature are final and where no human action can prevent the poles from melting, the deserts from growing, the sea level from rising, or hurricanes from becoming more numerous and more powerful.

The financial Tsunami seems to have swept over the whole world. In critical times like these regulators have an important role to play in safeguarding the interests of the investors. However, in India It seems that instead of defending the investors.
