Not much hand-wringing. A lot of head shaking though.

There's nothing smartass about it,this is nothing more than handwringing over a subject that's an attempt at social engineering.

It's a subject of utmost importance however. We do not have an infinite amount of fresh water. We are depleting our sources of water at an alarming rate. Our methods of farming and extractions of fossil fuels are not sustainable. Our uses and dumping of toxins are not sustainable. We're running out of water and all of our pollinators are dying out.
It's not hype, it's not scare-mongering. It's the truth. Even if our environmental problems consisted of just those two things, some very big changes need to happen.

No-one gives a frak. No one here, anyway. It's a problem we are gleefully kicking down the road, because all of us will be dead before the implied chickens come home to roost.

Unless reincarnation is real. Then we're all frakked.

I don't understand the mentality of doing nothing. I really don't.
I think most of us will still be alive when our chickens come home to roost. Even if we were to escape the worst of it, I don't understand why anyone would want to kick the problem down the road to make things worse for our children and grandchildren.

Food prices have already been rising. Fewer ranchers are raising cattle. Cargill even had to close a plant in Texas. No idea if any other companies have been closing due to water shortages. Water supplies are shrinking while water demand keeps growing every year.

Beef ranchers sold down their herds because we had $7 plus corn for quite awhile because of an even bigger scam, ethonol. :(
