ahhhh, this hasn’t happened for a bit. room to breath, room to do stuff like come here randomly and shower everyone who comes here with confetti like bits of wisdom and observance, thrown haphazardly around and leaving the mess around for someone else to sweep up. who am i kidding, i sweep it up. then dump it back where it came from so that it can mix around a bit before i reach into the confetti bin the next time i’m here. reduce, reuse, recycle, i say. ideas are not exempt.
and then things got busy. of course, i’m also trying to get out of here so we can hit the road for mike’s wedding. i am really looking forward to this, i sense the components of legend in the air.
so here’s some quick observations, just some jots in the notebook. i hear everyone talking about global warming alot. from what i can tell listening to various experts, they all agree on the fact that the earth is a huge environment, with millions of effects driving change at all possible moments. so let me throw this out there. it’s too late to stop alot of the catastrophes that are going to occur. i think the biggest one is going to be keeping fresh water around. it’s going to be tough enough to keep some around for drinking, let alone agriculture.
there are just too many people on this earth to stunt the events already put into motion, like the acidification of the ocean, and extreme melting of the icecaps. too many vicious cycles have already started, and the time frame of how the planet earth acts as an environment is probably shorter than we think. we can prepare or blunt what is going to happen, but the bottom line is that there is going to be a load of suffering as water cycles start changing up their frequency, and location.
I’m not saying that it’s time to give up and not do anything, but even if we could put every single policy into place to reverse the trend right now, it would still be too late. not to be a downer here, and i would rather be proved wrong, but i just think that with all the crazy industrialization going on around the world and such a huge population to sustain, the earth is going to get a tummy-ache. earth to humans: live everyday like it was your last!
i feel like i’ve typed this out already. well, here it is again!
