I shake my head in wonder at these threats that academics obsess about. While the drum beat of climate change goes on, 53 US Senators have agreed to vote for a resolution to hand over warmaking to Israel and Saudi Arabia and derail any chance of a negotiated peace with Iran. I have never felt more ashamed of the US government. I wonder how such a war would affect the environment?
It isn't that climate change isn't a concern - or that other challenges don't deserve attention - it's the extreme lack of sense of priority amidst , not merely distracted sheeple but the educated as well. I fully expect that the demands of living from paycheck to paycheck are too much for many to be able to protest much else - but do trillions of dollars wasted and tens of thousands killed in two unnecessary wars mean nothing? Do our leaders have any loyalty left to their own suffering people? Sorry for the rant but I marvel at what the public has come to accept - and ignore.
