We have the ability to exist without all that oil but the money bags don't want to give up their wealth. Oil is at the root of so many problems at the international level...not just here.<br />And our environment has been forced to absorb all this abuse along with the innocent creatures who live in it. For what? Dollars, bottom line. Our priorities are screwed up.<br /><br />And Sarah Palin...I wish I had the guts to put what I really think in print...it would not be pretty. Ya know?<br /><br />Your photographs are beautiful.Lori Skooghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03458010787337492501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3270942143171016829.post-91794294890826625442010-05-04T12:02:55.832-04:002010-05-04T12:02:55.832-04:00I'm so glad to read this, susan.

I am very pessimistic both about being able to thwart this disaster and for our species to wise up. The exploitation of resources makes our lives what they are, and the handful of people who enrich themselves through our addictions like us just the way we are. When I watch TV, I learn more about who we are by watching the commercials than by watching the news. The time to change has long passed, and the damage has been done. <br /><br />Did you ever read Alan Weisman's book The World Without Us. It's a very interesting read on how long it would take the planet to heal once the humans have disappeared.robin andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13390482190562312928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3270942143171016829.post-68653774076208550972010-05-04T03:10:51.729-04:002010-05-04T03:10:51.729-04:00Sarah Palin is not in charge (and, no, the hopey c...Sarah Palin is not in charge (and, no, the hopey changey thing ain't working out).<br /><br />Obama is in charge and just over a month ago he authorized more off shore drilling - something even Bush couldn't do. Not much point in bashing Palin when Obama is so much worse.<br /><br />I use public transport and am looked upon with pity. Americans LOVE their cars. I know a few people that could easily take the bus, but no...<br /><br />Can't be blaming politicians when there's so much people could do, but won't.Wolynskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04428782184898610640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3270942143171016829.post-6576534849398589412010-05-03T16:55:18.710-04:002010-05-03T16:55:18.710-04:00Spoken with feeling Susan.
