We’ve been fed a whole lot of pablum when it come to the crises already affecting this world’s people and living things. Some of what I’ve been reading predict far worse than Al Gore spoke of here. We don’t have until the end of this century to witness the mass migration of those who are hungry. Animals are moving toward the poles at 12 feet per day. Insects are extincting. Pandemics will increase with frequency. And as ocean waters warm, there will be a massive disruption in fish territories, removing a protein supply from millions. The fish will seek cooler waters.

There is no stopping what humans have created. When we ignored the science and chose selfishly not to change our ways with regard to petrochemicals, we chose this fate. We’re still choosing it.

Am Gore is an optimist. The only way to keep the number of refugees down to a billion is to kill a few billion before they leave home. Gaia will take care of that!
