29 November 2015: A moment’s intervention in the indifferent fabric of human worlds. What would a termite say about negotiations in Paris as part of COP21? Would they be relieved that humans have decided that termites are not the largest or most significant source of methane in the atmosphere? Would they be annoyed at the lack of progress by a species that purports to be the epitome of rational behavour? Would they do it better? What would their plan of action be?
