We will learn to live together as brothers, or die as fools

As we celebrate Dr. King’s birthday: let’s remember a foundational truth that he shared with us: “We will learn to live together as brothers, or we will die as fools”. This quote is more tru today than ever. We are living in a time period where the definition of America is being changed, and the future of mankind is in the balance. The president seems determined to divide us, and lying is a regular feature of his presidency. We need to make sure that the better angels of our nature trump foolishness.

12 years

We are told by scientists that we have 12 years to reduce carbon caused climate change and save our posterity from it’s worst impacts. I believe that we should all participate in every way possible in the campaign to protect and insure a livable planet for future generations. I am hopeful and believe that we can do what is required for the hope of a better life to go into the future. Every day, week, month, year and political season matter. Let’s all spread the word to vote, be alert, be active, and make a difference in maintaining a human-friendly world for those who come after us.

Shorter winters and longer summers

As we head into the shortest days of the year in the USA; remember that the cool or cold days you are experiencing will not be around for long. Think about any children in your life, kids, grandkids, nieces, nephews, etc. – the world they will live in will be significantly different (and harsher) if we don’t act decisively. Do anything that you can to decrease your carbon footprint and influence policy (vote) for responsibly tackling the problem of man-made climate change.

Battling climate change

Our climate is changing due to human activity. Accepting this truth means that we have to do something about it. We are told that human behaviors that release carbon into the atmosphere are the chief cause of climate change. What can we do to reduce our carbon footprint (release of carbon per person)? Every able person should think about what you can do; fewer trips, hybrid cars, electric cars, public transportation, solar panels, efficient insulation …the list of is long. Communicate, learn, and share what you can about caring for our environment. Our lives and future depend on it.
