Howdy Chef. You may be right, or we may be surprised. It is hard to say. Humans have a record of making the right choices at the last second possible. What I refuse to do is give up. This planet is precious, unique, and worth fighting for. I have spent the last ten years working on the issue. I am currently working on a project studying CO2 emissions capture and Agricultural products that can be made from it. On my own time, I am doing citizen science projects that hopefully I will end up publishing. I am studying water holding capacity and biolife increase in hugelkulter systems.
I live in the US South, the least educated section of America. Sometimes it feels like there is no fuking way I will ever make a change, but I came here precisly because this is where change is needed most. I urge you, and all other readers to take matters into your own hands. Create something that will survive an apocalypse, make a garden that feeds your neighbors, educate children in how to grow food, be a good example, keep a lookout for opportunities to be of service because in the end....
THERE IS NO SECURITY WITHOUT FOOD SECURITY.
