Subject: RE: Tips from Texas to the UK for beating the heat
Steve's conservation efforts exceed mine. I don't think Helen and I disagree but I am still impressed by the first responder simile.

There will be moments of tearful pride in our response to this ultimate crises be it a musical on stage or a multi government statement to end climate change. Window dressing is pretty but chaos lies within. I have maintained my cynacism that we will likey not succeed over the next thousand years of climate change reversal or even the next hundred years. I do not even blame our lizard brain or morality.

The Earth has its own plans. Its been red with rust when oxygen levels rose, its bee, white when the oceans froze to the equator, its been blue with our liquid oceans. Its even been an incandescent orange of molten rock.

"The problem today was not from heaven or the stars, it is us."
hmmm... it almost sounds Shakespearian.
We were created and made of star stuff so to a limited degree I suppose we could blame the stars. But blame is usually a waste of time.
