2050, the System

Agree with Tod; by 2050, environmental Armageddon may have already arrived.  Live in a big city (Nice, France), and every time I see someone throw a wrapper or kleenex in the street (dozens of times each day), I realize how ignorant folks are in general (I consider these gestures to be direct arrow wounds to the environment).  Sometimes I make a snide comment, most times I don't.  Sometimes I pick up trash and put it in the publicly provided trash containers (which REALLY raises eyes).  Ok, nuff of that...Boring.

THE SYSTEM.  It DOES need to be changed.  Top-down, bottom-up, laterally, quietly, by revolution, doesn't matter.  The current system (talkin' world governmental/social/economic system for the most part) is the death knell for the Human Race as we know it (not the world--she'll regenerate after we're gone.)  And yes, I REALLY believe all that.  Read Robert Pirsig (the first book, 'Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance', for some fantastic views on the "System."  A real expert there, Pirsig...an INTELLIGENT expert!On The system changes or we're all screwed posted 1 year, 9 months ago 12 Responses
