Lack of grey matter in the human race.

[Ezarc]

I am worried for the human race. So many poor in the world. Under fed, malnourished and living in terrible conditions are the new standard.
We bred more and more people into this world every day. The population is expanding at an alarming rate. Is the world big enough to support all those coming?
We waste so much of the worlds resourses out of convenience. The hazard wastes to plastics that don't biodegrate. The world is choking on our garbage.
The plants and animals are seen as an obstacle for progress. We tear down a tree to improve our view. Clear a rain forest for timber and the all important money.
Our planet dies and I listen to music and type on my laptop and don't have a clue whether anybody knows or cares.

Some of us do care and try to do things to make a difference. Even if it's something small, it's a start.

I used to care more, but I try not think about all that so much...
My own life depresses me enough.
I do try to do what I can though, as little as that is... *sigh*

Take Care,

A hurricane starts with a slight breeze and a single drop of rain. If everyone did one small thing to help the ill's of the world, most of our problems would be solved.
One of my small contributions was this: my wife and I had only two children. I couldn't add to the population problems of the world by having more.
Noot much of a contribution? By it's self your right. But if we could convince the rest of the world to follow suit, the over population danger would be gone.
