Global Warming and the Stupid People

“No one cares”: That’s not an inconvenient truth: It’s a sad commentary on the self-imposed blindness of those who want to believe the world works the way it did in the good old days – you know, when presidents could strut around on aircraft carriers, when the West ruled and everyone could bow to the shibboleth of “free markets” or socialism, or communism, or consumerism. You may not care about the millions who starve in Africa today as a result of the fairly moderate changes already occurring. You may not care about future damage and lives disrupted or lost. You might not care, but your planet does. The world did not become flat because humans decided it was; the sun and stars did not revolve around Earth because that was the prevalent belief; and global warming will not become a “non-issue” because people “don’t care”.
