I am not really depressed about climate change and the ultimate effects in the next few decades. It will be an opportunity to make the ultimate correction. The only way to save the planet anywhere near it’s current state would be to shutdown the oil industry TODAY … but we know that won’t happen or even substantially slow down fossil fuel use. The rich and their children will just have to learn to eat the money they have amassed … if they can get it back out of their banks and investments.

Mother Nature won’t eliminate every human on planet Earth. Maybe those that remain will have the lessons needed for the next millennia indelibly etched in their brains for future generations to eventually thrive.

Some parents should be fearful for their children and even more worried about their grandchildren. I have a 30 year old son and he has said he has no plans for any children. He will probably be OK in his lifetime with his skill set but it may get hard for him in a decade or two.

This little Youtube clip says it best.
