Let me begin by painting a visual for you. We're a bunch of scavenging crabs on a small little strip of beach thumb height above sea level. And advancing from various directions are some very big waves: Multi-tsunami. Those waves are already there. There's nothing we can do to get rid of them or change them, they're already blocking out a lot of the sky.
And they're certain to crash over us and engulf us. It's not really a question of when, because it's already happening, we can see the waves.
The only thing we can do, is deal with ourselves in our immediate surroundings. We have control over our bodies and minds, and I'd like the focus to go there.
NVDL: Jeepers, a very fat me wrote this almost 3 years ago. As it turns out, a helluva lot of P|R was necessary to convince the world about Peak Oil (and there remains some convincing to do). That said, I admire these sentiments a great deal, and think we do need to start moving away from debeating the issues, to dealing with them [which means transitioning from thinking to doing.]
