Would
you rather live in an industrial wasteland or a green, fertile paradise?
We have a choice in the matter. Much of what we humans have created,
infatuated with the ego-idea of isolation and blinded by greed, has
matched the former but we could, just as easily, make our abode an
ecological heaven. The key insight is that, when we see a picture of
Earth from outer space, we're looking at a self-portrait.
Everyone out there, no matter how hurt and confused they are, is really
love. We are capable of such great things. Why NOT live a happy,
healthy fulfilling life?
I think it's important to realize that such a thing is
entirely possible, with technology available NOW. We have a choice in the matter. Education is
important. Most of us haven't been taught about sustainability and
unsustainability from a young age. It's very simple, commonsensical
stuff and easily overlooked when your society's frame of reference is
looking somewhere else.
The bottom line is, would you rather live here:
Or here?:
