"Despite the diversity of mussel fauna found within the U.S., no other group of animals (aquatic or terrestrial) is as imperiled or has faced as many extirpations. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service lists seventy species as federally endangered or threatened, many more are protected at the state level"
and that's just mussels :/ wtf are we doing?! polar bears are drowning we are sucking the earth dry of every single resource at an unsustainable rate growing exponentially and smashing down every hill dale and tree in sight! When all this goes terribly wrong and mother earth reclaims what is hers by purging this uncaring nasty little bugger we call mankind I wont be able to bring myself to anger over it...we had it coming
I'm not saying "We" since aquaponics and sustainable homesteads are the only way to redeem our race and save what's left of our lovely little planet but we make up what? 10%? there is a tidal wave coming and despite any efforts the momentum is already to great to stem.
The single above thought is what sent me down this path of discovery. I only hope the few of us that adapt and embrace what must be done can at least move out of the way before the wave sweeps us away with the rest of the clutter.
*edited to not ruffle feathers(still true though ;p )
P.s. we are running out of fossil fuels
The oil may not run out within 10 years and the earth may just sit back and let us melt it's face off but just in case might i suggest taking cover?
Since the earth doesn't have the resources, China will solve the problem as man has in the past...WAR.
Well, we see how trustable they are
