A friend of mine sent me this message on Facebook about a week ago:
"I must be spending too much time on facebook as your angry (though dead-on) comments have seeped into my subconscious. Had a dream last night that you were yelling on the street about oil spills and dead geese!"
I must be doing something right! ; - j
I got to say, as much as I like to enjoy my time on this planet and
as much as I feel very grateful for what's left of the earth, it is pretty
disturbing to witness the incessant environmental assaults and human and
animal rights abuses that are occurring at a dizzying rate these days. Not only that
the events seem to be accelerating in a cascade of bad sh*t. (Literally: my tap water in Brooklyn
smelled like sewage this morning because it drizzled for a couple of minutes. When that happens in NY the sewers flood and spill over into the water supply. Lovely!)
Well here's my latest facebook interaction which pretty much sums up my mood today:
My post:
Yuisa Dávila WHAT THE FLUFF??!!!!! DONT THEY HAVE SCIENTISTS THAT COULD HAVE/SHOULD HAVE WARNED THEM OF THIS????!!!!! IM ABSOLUTELY SICK WITH THIS!!!!!
E.l. Copeland well man the other oil spill in michigan day before last isnt even being covered it was 800k gallons right into the drinking water
Djibril Toure yup it was cheaper than skimmin it off the surface..inglorious basterdz

F*cking BP. It looks like the dispersants (Corexit) they put in the ocean may likely be KILLING the very MICROBES that would naturally break down and eat the oil.

MY RESPONSE:
@E.L. dude I heard about that. Supposedly there's an effort to stop it from getting to lake Michigan. To all: we need to keep putting the word out about these things and raise awareness and discussion. For the health of our planet to become a priority there has to be a big popular swell of outrage over these events and our government's failure to aggressively push towards a sustainable energy infrastructure. The cats running the show at the moment are content to let this place go to hell. It would seem that they are convinced that money and class advantage will allow them to remain untouched by the catastrophic events that are sure to pass; in large part as a direct result of their tolerance, support or aggressive pursuit of a fossil fuel based energy system and an oil and war economy. Things are very real.
That's the rub. Till next time friends.
Stay up!
