'ecological disaster'

Mayne warns Dubai set for ‘ecological disaster’

Another in a long string of similar stories.

I was in Dubai today for lunch at the More and to buy a loaf of bread (The Organic Foods and Cafe has the best Spelt bread in the country). Dubai has some really nice restaurants and some really interesting buildings. There are some great, green parks. However, the obsession with having the biggest, best, most...yadda, yadda, yadda, seems to be a recipe for disaster. Perhaps it's just my Canadian-ness, but being okay is, well, okay. You don't need to be the greatest to be pretty darn good.
