With the human population expanding at an alarming pace, and along with it consumer culture, how long can we sustain this kind of growth, burning fossil fuels, stealing from the land and not putting back, before it all collapses under it's own weight? How can we not be effecting the global environment when more and more of it's surface is paved over, forests cleared, CO2 stored as carbon based fuels being released at never before seen rates, and on and on and on? We can either wake up and do something about it or we can sit back and watch as the Dakotas become desert, the Rocky Mountain snow-melt dry up leaving millions living in the American West without water. As humans, we have a huge problem to face and it's time to figure out what we are going to do about it.
