Im to the point with Americans and their voting Republican and pro-business and anti-environment and anti-socialism.... where I think the government should not fix anything and just let it destroy the place where the disaster happened.
After a few places got absolutely destroyed people would start paying attention.
Dumb people are incapable of learning unless they get burned on the stove a few times.
They were talking in the article about the Atlantic being the next target of the oil companies....
i think the problem is, as intuitive as that sounds, people are good at finding scapegoats and blaming others instead of looking in the mirror, and issues as large as those are so abstract at some point idk... i don’t know what the answer is exactly but i think it starts with ‘edu’ and ends with ‘cation’... just my observation....
but maybe you are right... i just shudder at how bad it would have to get for people to notice.

I'm having a hard time not applying your statement to the entire human race. Not that I think we're all "dumb people", but we all seem to be exhibiting a serious lack of concern for the environment and the planet's future.
Also called "learning the hard way." Maybe we do need to get burned a bit to learn how to take better care of ourselves.
