Are we Setting up the Destruction of the Planet?

If a CEO of any public company behaved how Donald Trump is, the board of directors would have let him go a long time ago.

But Donald Trump is not acting like a selfish and incompetent shill for the billionaires on his own time. We are at a point where leadership is needed to avoid the massive destruction resulting from global warming, world war, and economic depressions.

It's past time that even Republicans need to wake up and fight against their own party. but will they, or will they set up the destruction of the planet by war and climate change?

1. The vast majority of all species that ever existed on this planet

have gone extinct. Why should humans be any different? Maybe it's best to let the beetles evolve up and have their chance.

2. Do we need other life forms to survive ???

You can't grow crops in dead soil.

You can't have thriving marine life in the ocean's dead zones.

You can't grow crops if the fields are flooded.

You can't grow crops if the fields are burning up in droughts.

You can't grow crops if the temperature is too hot.

You can't grow crops if the temperature is too cold.

There is not enough time for the plants and animals to adjust to the changes that are coming.

Without the ability to grow and store grain, civilization will collapse.

Most large cities have a 3 day supply of food in their grocery stores.

There will be no feed for cows, pigs, sheep, chickens, etc.

Folks in rural areas will kill all the deer, turkey, rabbits, and squirrels.

I think the future will be a horrific one.

If we become extinct what happens when 440 nuclear power plants melt down ?

We may have destroyed all life and turned earth into mars.

3. "Are we Setting up the Destruction of the Planet?"

DUH!

4. No. We are setting up the destruction of human ability to live on the planet

The planet will survive in one form or another.

Humans - won't.

5. Because we've been too stupid to treat the conflict with the GOP as what it is: War.

We should have been fighting for our survival the last 40 years, and instead we've been "bi-partisan" with the forces of destruction.

6. That's a big part of it, yep. n/t

7. We're going to lose a lot of other beautiful creatures on the way there

Just learned that last years survey found less than 20 vaquita in the Gulf of California.
