Humanize the Earth!

taking person action

Once again, Michael Herman nails it

What can you do? Who do you know? Everybody knows somebody down that way. Six degrees of separation might mean that we’ve all got a one-in-six chance of being the ones on the front line. And there are going to be more than six shots fired.

We’re all in this together. And last I checked, despite the wobbling, we are still a democracy, which means we are the federal government. All of us. Let’s get it in session! …and get it in gear! This end must be our beginning.

If we build our future now, the forced transition won’t be so painful. Was having a similar conversation with my friend Cynthia about gas prices. Much better to pay $4/gal now (and start to change our behaviour) than to have the government take some action to drive the price back down to $3 or $2 (where we’re a lot less likely to take personal action) and then have $20/gal when we run out.
