Let’s wait for the leaders to fix things. COP 28 just ended and made yet another major announcement! They promise to begin thinking about possibly phasing out fossil fuels and investing in clean energy! Wow! This is HISTORIC!
Don’t you feel enormous relief? No? Why not?
What about the economy?
Looks like the Fed beat inflation and we are heading for a soft landing! Unemployment is low. And interest rates are expected to edge lower.
How great is that! Not very? Not good enough?
You are damned right. Our leaders and our species overall are failing in our most basic task — living nicely on the planet, being kind to each other and Nature. We are terrible stewards of the Earth, and astoundingly cruel to each other.
Look at the Middle East. We are divided into two groups: one group that wants the Palestinian Arabs to die and one that wants Israeli Jews to die. Who wants to live together in peace? Why aren’t we hearing from people who value all human life?
What the hell is wrong with us?
