When we look at geophysical forces, the action of biochemistry, over the long millions of years, humankind is puny. Nature, Biochemistry, Geo-activity, Evolution, are all neutral things, because it is the human senses, and thought, that gives value, or de-value, to all of these. I don't think planet worship is a good thing, in and of itself. In fact, the elites that you guys ignore, value the planet, over the rest of us, damned, dirty, apes (Orig. Planet Apes, Heston)
In the 20th century, UK Labor leaders would make speeches about members of the House of Lords, exclaiming, "Someday, we'll have him out of that auto!" which mean't, the chauffer driven Rolls Royce. People like Al Gore, George Soros, say the same thing except they want all of the Proles out of their cars and forced to take public transport, while they fly private jets, have their own chauffer driven limousines. The elitists hypocrisy of the Green Reds, should at least gather people's concern, however, their sins are ignored as they fund Progressive causes, specifically environmental causes. They are worse, to me, then, vile, uncle Penny Bags, in his top hat and tux, reviled by progressives-a symbol of capitalism. What needs to be addressed, entirely, is Crony Capitalism, which has direct, access to power, and essentially, runs the world. Crony Capitalists, run both parties in the states, and I suspect this might be true in Kiwiland? Humans, when our lifestyles get upgraded, start to become concerned about critters survival (plants too) when they climb up Maslow's hierarchy of needs. But definitely, not before! I agree with the Rational Optimist view of the world. The Chinese, burn gigatons of coal, (which Green schmucks never ever address!) yet I suspect if the had a cheaper, cleaner, abundant, option, even party leaders and their billionaires, would opt for clean air. So far, the miracle of solar power hasn't done this. Try powering Shang Hai on solar and wind. Success? Ah! Not yet. The Chinese have double the amount of shale gas then we, but not the expertise yet to exploit it, or the political will. In the US it goes zooming along, despite the lamentations of the greenies, In Europe its stalled due to Green-Red control and the sheer delight of importing methane from Lord Putin. That is their choice, of course. -----Original Message----- From: LizR <lizj...@gmail.com> To: everything-list <everything-list@googlegroups.com> Sent: Fri, Aug 8, 2014 12:27 am Subject: Re: The game explained to soft ecologist, ecoalarmist and alternative energy lovers On 8 August 2014 01:58, Platonist Guitar Cowboy <multiplecit...@gmail.com> wrote: On Thu, Aug 7, 2014 at 3:33 PM, Telmo Menezes <te...@telmomenezes.com> wrote: On Thu, Aug 7, 2014 at 2:27 PM, Platonist Guitar Cowboy <multiplecit...@gmail.com> wrote: I believe Spud and Alberto should get married.

PGC Heil den Planet, oder? (I'm trying to learn German :) Lol. I'd have thought Dativ "Heil dem Planeten" if anything; but it sounds ridiculous without a proper noun as "which planet?" is not even clear. And yes, Alberto laid that trap and predicted my correction... but I predicted that he would post this and lay the trap + that he and spud will continue doing so about a month ago. No surprises here. PGC Hm, "heal" doesn't mean "heil" ("hail") in any case. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
