Manage episode 436411062 series 3259790
The riddle of our time is: How could we remain so passive, when the violence is so near and so well-known in every way. We know the perpetrators, their bank accounts, the location and operation of their greed.
Every month for the last 14 months has been the hottest on record. The scientists who reported what weather to expect based on computer models now say that the exponential rate of climate change makes those sophisticated estimates impossible. They are throwing away the computers and making a run for it. Thousands of species are disappearing while flood and fire comes roaring up the valley of zombified consumers. We can't escape the prison of convenience. The thing is, we still have the offer to participate in this apocalypse. The Earth waits for us.
