Anon: It seems to me that humankind should prefer to go out
rather than to commit this kind of planet-cide.
I think that's a good thought, not only for the sake of the planet
but because children are probably better off unborn from here on.
I'm afraid the thought of humankind going out by some method other
than making things worse and worse is unrealistic; I'm sure you
agree--not that there will be no successes at all toward slowing
down the planet's demise. Sorry planet and starving children. Or
perhaps you're still hoping for some miracle of cheap technology
combined with everyone being eager to change their habits. It's
tricky for me to maintain some sort of positive attitude for myself
and those I love. But I'm working on it, and I hope that you are
managing it somehow and keeping yourself as healthy as possible.
love,
Larry
