4. You nailed it! Too bad we're a minority who see this.
It IS the topic from which all others extend. Except for some. Greed will always be with us, but one again population exacerbates it.

I'd love to tell you about this guy I know, but it's difficult, and I'm short of time right now. He's basically a genius who grew up on the streets of San Francisco. The most intelligent person I've ever met in terms of being able to condense things down to a simple idea. We only talked about this a couple of nights ago, and I haven't had time to research the validity of his statements. Basically he was saying that in the previous ice ages the animals on earth evolved to be more refined, or something. For example, dinosaurs became birds. He's one of the few people who sees population as the pivotal subject. So he's aware. We're working on a fuel cell fired hot water heater, by the way. It's our attempt to try and save the planet. So after ten years of talking about this subject, he made a statement that I thought was brilliant. It was after I mentioned that CO2 stays in the atmosphere not for the 120 years we had previously thought, but thousands of years. Which is big shit for the planet. We're in way worse trouble than even I thought. So now we're headed for disaster. He said that in the event that we do have another ice age, humans will probably come out the other end in an evolved form. Like Pterodactyls to birds, humans may very well come through this in some kind of refined form.

I've spent 40 years in a terrible state over this. I saw it one day as clear as could be. Around 17 years old I became conscious. And it has been just awful to watch. My mother being raped, is how I see it. Not easy. But at 45 I couldn't take the stress anymore. My body started falling apart. Now I'm in survival mode. I'm eating right, working out in the gym four hours per day. It may be permanent, the fatigue. But I'm beginning to be resigned that I can't make others conscious. I have to try and survive. I hate the ugliness. The noise, the contrails, the cars, the houses. I've gone nuts over this.

Well, I've got to run. But in my life I don't think I've ever had another person come to me asking about this subject. You're the first. Feel free to ask me anything.
