I do hope we will make it into the next century. It's a bit ironic that we are in a technological/scientific Golden Age, but at the same time, we've never been so close to wiping ourselves out.And it's all because of 'politics', not because of a lack of technologies to greatly improve life on this planet. Please, please, let's do whatever we can to wake up to reality and not let the powers that be maintain the status quo, we need change and we need it quickly, we are running out of time. We can't keep polluting like there's no tomorrow, we can't afford to keep driving SUVs, we can't keep drilling for oil, while only marginally working on clean energies. We don't need to eat factory farmed beef 3 times a day, we don't need to use plastic bags only to dispose of them as soon as we get home, we don't need companies that only look at the bottom line and don't care about anything else, our health and the environment being just collateral damage in the struggle to make the largest possible profit...
