I see the giant garbage cans in our neighborhood that overflow with stuff every single week. And the Hummers that are parked in the driveway, because they don't fit into the garage.<br /><br />I recycle everything that is recyclable, I drive a fuel efficient car, I'm frugal with my electricity consumption...and then I wonder if my puny little efforts make any difference. But I do it, because it's all I can do.<br /><br />I sure hope we learn before it really is too late!Pixel Peeperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17553862902461169270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-829836469690492751.post-27777350067071374742014-11-24T21:25:20.621-05:002014-11-24T21:25:20.621-05:00I would have been totally ticked off to get a glor...I would have been totally ticked off to get a glorified pamphlet when I was expecting a book, so I don't blame you for giving it a single star on Amazon.<br /><br />I'm not as pessimistic as you are about the fate of the planet. Doesn't mean I'm right. It just means I'm hopeful that we'll wake up and change our ways before it's too late. Of course, it would be immensely helpful if our politicians were wise enough to lead the way. Never mind. Maybe I'm a little pessimistic, after all.<br /><br />I read something by Whitney Streiber back in the seventies... something about being abducted by aliens, if I remember correctly.

I think we are already in a diabolical Catch 22 with our money-making activities generating global disaster, and the impending global disaster generating more money-making. Who knew it would end like this? I guess at least I have a better view :DRed Nomad OZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03020668094026661054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-829836469690492751.post-43988485313176488992014-11-24T01:43:13.530-05:002014-11-24T01:43:13.530-05:00Jimmy: There was a line in the last Chris Nolan Ba...Jimmy: There was a line in the last Chris Nolan Batman movie that I found intriguing and in a way fits our society.<br /><br />The bad guy Bane is kicking Batman's ass but during that process says something like this:<br /><br />[to Batman] "Peace has cost you your strength! Victory has defeated you!"<br /><br />We've lost something as Americans that might be impossible to recapture. Speaking strictly from my prespective we have become the kings of the mountain and now fear change, this takes many forms but concerning climate change we have vested interests like oil companies who will die before they allow some new techology to become widespread. I find it funny in many ways that while they proclaim the superiority of free markets they absolutely refuse to let go of their huge federal tax breaks.
