One of Greta Thunberg’s gifts
to the world
is
she is a carbon usage scorekeeper.
She regularly reports
(with help, of course)
on
how we are doing
vs
what we promised to do.
Many politicians
and business owners
hate her for this.
Being a scorekeeper
is a much reviled job.
But it is necessary
if we want to achieve
our goals.
In business,
the scorekeeper job
is often held
by the finance folks
and yes,
they are also
hated for doing this task.
But they are part of the reason
businesses achieve their goals.
We all need a scorekeeper.
If you don’t have one,
assign the task
to someone.
And try
to shelter them
(or compensate them)
from the hatred.
