"There's not going to be a world to save later"
Towering truth from the mouths of babes, Dire imperatives we have collectively neglected.
"Washington refuses to lift a finger without permission from the fossil fuel industry. That’s dangerous and it’s wrong."-- from the Warren website.
A RW Trumper said to me: "We're now the worlds number one oil producer"
I asked him just exactly what was so wonderful about that. How does that improve my life? How many species are being wiped out so we can drive bigger cars and sit in maddening traffic jams, engines burbling away? What about the future generations.
Of course this old fuck had no answer to this, just a derisive scoff. I'm documenting that here for posterity and shame.
