No it won't. It will just continue with consumers telling the government to DO something. They are too lazy to do anything themselves like dig a veggie patch or even grow a few herbs. I despair of humanity. A good dose of plague might not be such a bad thing. Well it would rip right through those mega cities. A nice virulent avian flu that is human transmitted would do the trick, coming soon to your neighbourhood? I hope not. There is absolutely no doubt that in the end climate change, overpopulation, land degradation, water pollution, peak oil and daytime soap operas WILL be dealt with. The challenge is to do it without allowing the four horsemen to cause untold misery to billions along the way. David I fear that is not possible, David. Speaking truth to power has, in my experience, little effect, and history bears this out, as witnessed by various prophets, seers, visionaries, and other illuminated and schmart folks who were ignored by the rich and famous and powerful. Doesn't have much to do wit schmart people. Sensible people in industrial societies have fewer children. In the United States of you know who, each kid costs about a half million $. That is incentive to anyone who can use their brain. It is alos interesting that John prophesied so long ago about a world situation that is taking on an amazing resemblance to what he said. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MeSSw...eature=related The challenge and the attempt are noble, and required, but I also fear we are simply ****in' in the wind. Yet try we must, while maintaining a watchful posture to sidestep what we are able. I hope I am wrong, but like farml, I too despair of humanity most times. Your a Lutheran aren't you Charlie? I listen to Prairie Home Companion and I'd recognize you anywhere. Just waiting for God's coup de gras? Well I think we would do just fine if we could get these freakin' parasites off'en us.(Like Gov. Shrub, he wasn't really elected to anything else).
