our day

OUR DAY

last friday was earth day
it should be called our day
since
if we dont take care of our earth
we are all goners
so
its our day
our day to emphasize the need to do what it takes
so that this earth survives
if it doesnt survive
we dont

whats good for the earth
its good for us

dumping pollutants into the earth
well documented in the past
air pollution and chemicals from industrial wastes
killing our earth
killing us also

as goes the earth
we go

last week i sat at a friends table listening to this young person
who is from alaska
talk about the polar cap
how they use to be able to reach out from this building
and
touch the glaciers
now years later
you have to hike several miles inland just to see a glacier
thats
how much warming has occurred
how much has melted there

then enter the chinese and russians up there on the arctic circle
working to use that route to transport things to europe and beyond
a route never available before
but
now thanks to whatever is causing this
they are both there trying to seek an advantage
maybe even more sinister reasons

climate change no matter what its cause needs to be stopped

i personally think its the cyclical events that happens with the weather
that has been knocked severely off kilter
by our human contamination of the air and water
so that it may not be possible to recover from all this

as i have said
we cant be wrong about this
if we are
we and our earth are
doomed to extinction
like
the dinosaurs
