Even if Obama had wanted change as soon as he did he would have been ousted in one form or another.<br /><br />They key to solving the climate problem and most of the other ones is to understand how utterly bankrupt and corrupt the political system is and how the media is part and parcel of that system controlling and shaping public opinion.<br /><br />Until we have an informed and mature public who actually want to learn anything and decide to think outside the box, they might then see through the hoax of our economic/political system and strive for a better and of course sustainable world. -i.e. the change has to come from within the body of humanity itself. <br /><br />Alas though it should be clear that isn't going to happen and therefore we can conclude that we don't meet the necessary criteria to advance humanity to the next level of living in an sustainable and intelligent society and so these simple tests like can you handle nuclear energy peacefully and responsibly, can this society have enough self-control to allow room for other species and can we spot, stop, reverse and repair a planet that is having its biosphere destroyed. It would be a foolish mistake if somehow an intelligent species could evolve and become sufficiently technically advanced to then go and contaminate not just the Earth but even further afield.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
