I feel fortunate. I live where trees are respected. Which also means wildlife is too. The rain that just thundered down like sheets of water is likewise a gift these days. Drought has ripped the water from the mouths of possibly a billion people worldwide. Horrible way to die.
As those of us who truly care, this will only worsen and we know there is nothing one person can do to alter humanity’s declining history.
The pendulum swung cutting deep and we humans may be the last to go, but maybe not. Mother Nature is not a kind mistress.
At times like what we currently live in when we move beyond theoretical we also move beyond theatrical.
The theoretical in this instance is why three nations are attempting to drive the world into nuclear annihilation?
We all know about Russia’s insanity with Ukraine. That is the first one.
Then there’s China. A nation of almost two billion that seems to believe they must regain control of land, islands, and seas once controlled by distant ancestors. As if no time passed other than for the end of life on earth. China too likes to saber rattle with nuclear weapons.
Lastly is Israel oozing its way to a war with Iran, bombing their research facilities, assassinating scientists on the streets of Iranian cities.
Perhaps the leaders of all three are theatrically dancing around a spinning black hole that devours some people’s souls and sanity. Turning them into hollow husks of humanity.
Unfortunately they ignore our biggest threat – Climate Change. Or have they decided a simpler way of fixing it? They might try bombing it back into into the stone ages.
No one man or woman should be allowed the power that the above three are abusing. At a cost to everyone.
