Something more troubling than global warming
Idon't fear global warming as much as I fear global stupidity. We couldn't have the first problem without the second.

But then again we wouldn't have either to fear, if we had managers with moral competency at both the corporate and governmental levels. It's the absence of them that we should fear.

We need leaders committed to providing us with the truth and action to save the world and ourselves from drowning or extinction from some other environmental poisoning.

Do are schools not teach the algae dish experiment, where the successful algae all die in their own toxic waste?

Recently an environmental group recommended that adherents to Judaism burn one less candle this Hanukkah. Are we not grasping at straws? Why don't all environmentalists cry to Detroit to make an all-electric car?

Does anyone really care? Or is apathy the thing to fear?

I suggest we fear them all.
