For the future of humanity.

Everyone claims to love their children and grandchildren, but then how are they able to deal with the fact that they have fundamentally destroyed the world, both economically and environmentally?  It does make me wonder when about the supposed intelligence when people put the “economy” over the environment- do they not understand that both elements go hand in hand and that the more they destroy the environment the more it will cost the economy??
Just take this year, we have had an unbearable long winter and spring was nowhere to be found. How much do you think the cost of energy was? I don’t just mean in financial terms but in lives. How many elderly people and homeless people lost their lives because they couldn't afford to pay the rising heating costs??  It would be hard to find the exact number because we don’t have a free press and the people in power don’t want to get the mob all riled up, because if you knew the real figure it would cause massive outrage and anger among
the people- or it should.
People have become an uncaring bunch, unless it directly affects them right this second they don’t care, they just go on polluting and continue with their mind numbing and soul sucking jobs!  Especially in western countries people pay no heed to what happening in other parts of the world because it’s over there and will never happen to them, they believe that just because they have money that they can control the damage, but mother nature doesn’t care if you have a gold card, the devastation will still be catastrophic just look across the pond at the States, they still haven’t sorted out New Orleans and they haven’t fully cleared the damage from Hurricane Sandy, No matter what the news claims!  
And The States boosts about being the richest and most powerful nations on Earth, what do you suppose nations like India, Pakistan and China can do against such weather?? Just earlier this month there was news about over 1,000 dead and homeless because of rising waters in Bangladesh, but it was soon forgotten by the people because we got a few days of sun!! It makes me sick to my stomach. The West and the industrialised part of the world made most of the mess and the poorest countries are being punished through loss of lives, homes and livelihood.

Countries in the West are starting to feel it as parts of Germany, France, Hungary and Canada are flooded, but there have been signs for years now, every year winter was getting longer for most countries and most of Europe and America was on fire due to extremely hot and dry summers and with increasingly devastating storms in The States.  Having to rebuild entire communities and the loss of crops has costs us dearly with the rising cost of the most basic foods, now tell me how is this not costing the economy?! Now we have scientist claiming they can replicate what nature does (did) for us for free, but how much will it cost and wouldn’t it have been better if we didn’t FRAK UP THE ENVIRONMENT TO BEGIN WITH?!!!
