Doomsday just makes me want to curl up and hide--and that wouldn't help anything.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8748132068177727146.post-1385832651849857362011-09-18T23:44:19.461-07:002011-09-18T23:44:19.461-07:00your first sentence:

For a while now we've been constrained by the limits of that part of nature we've been pumping up out of the ground, which limits are farther out than the ones we'd have if we didn't pump oil out of the ground, but in the end we still can't do more than the planet will allow us to do.<br /><br />Those other animals you call dumb are what's standing between us and extinction. Ditto the plants, which are even dumber. You're right, there is more to life than graphs. There's also what the events portrayed in the graphs will do to us somewhere down the road.<br /><br />It's worth noting that there are indigenous groups in the Arctic that depend on that reindeer. Groups of human beings. And it may well be that they adapt to the reindeer being gone. But that adaptation might result in them encroaching on other human populations in a desperate bid to find other food. Not a scenario I find particularly attractive.Dana Seilhanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11749354913843954242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8748132068177727146.post-43981821001842307132011-01-30T12:56:28.098-08:002011-01-30T12:56:28.098-08:00No car.

No cheap clothes or shoes, except from thrift shops. I holiday a year in your own country. No 24-7 TV. No broadband. One mobile phone per family. Poor roads. Indifferent bus and train services. More pubs. Fewer restaurants.Half Emptyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04589816424420932962noreply@blogger.com
