Renewable Revolution

Agelbert NOTE: This was written before the COVID-19 triggered Global Neoliberal = Capitalist = Fascist caused Economic Collapse. It accurately predicted the present (and ongoing) COVID-19 response of the elite. Now inevitable, the increasingly deadly consequences of Catastrophic Climate Change will be addressed, not in rational viable biosphere, multi-species preserving and protecting cooperative stewardship by caring humans, but by, as the article warns, "... the increasing insulation of the world's wealthy minority from the rest of humanity -- buying protection for their fortressed communities from the Halliburtons, Bechtels and Blackwaters of the world while the majority of the poor are left to scramble for survival among the ruins."

The elite greedballs, after they have watched most of the biosphere (and we-the-people) perish, will also perish from the inevitably destructive consequences of making a religion out of Social Darwinism. The author of the article is probably, unlike me, an atheist. That said, I acknowledge that he is a man of Godly principles who can discern perfectly well between ethical and unethical behavior. He knows that unethical behavior is TOTALLY embraced by TPTB, and does not shy away from the facts. That is why he is so depressed. I am depressed too but I understand what all the Happy Talk "Ascent of Man" Darwinists studiously refuse to accept, despite all the biological DNA DEGRADATION EVIDENCE in their arrogant intellimoron faces. That is, that mankind has DEVOLVED, not "evolved".

It is the height of straw grasping irrelevance for the "Might equals Right" Social Darwinist true believers to arrogantly mock whatever it was that happened in the (metaphorical or real) Garden of Eden that resulted in the indisputably FALLEN NATURE of HUMANITY. Anyone with critical thinking skills cannot fail to see how self-destructive to the biosphere and ourselves our species is.

Human "civilization" is, cell phones, computers and all, indisputable evidence of how rapidly, just in the last century, we have devolved into increasingly destructive forms of EVIL behavior, never mind before that.

It is an insult to the animal kingdom to equate Profit Over People and Planet Greedballs with "animals". No animal on earth, for as long as this biosphere has been functioning since its creation, would ever cause the wanton rampage of destruction that humanity is responsible for.

Though the author of this article cannot bring himslef to do it, it is HIGH TIME that what humanity has done to God's Garden be called by its appropriate name: SIN. You can tack on several descriptive adjectives (i.e. WANTON, WILLFUL, REBELLIOUS, ARROGANT, DIABOLICAL, etc.), but the central problem of humans who refuse to respect and care for each other and live in harmony with all life around them is that they CHOOSE to SIN instead of obeying God by being good stewards of creation.

Whether you want to believe, as I do, that Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth and the Life, or not, I sincerely hope you can agree that Proft Over People and Planet caused human misery and environmental destruction is SINFUL behavior. You know that human caused environmental destruction has already ushered in the Sixth Mass Extinction and will most likely cause the death of every single human on Earth.

Whether you want to accept any of the wisdom written about the consequences of SIN in the Bible or not, the fact that sinful behavior at the present planetary scale causes death is irrefutable.
 
The WAGES OF SIN (i.e. rejecting God's Comandment, written in every human soul, to respect and care for each other and live in harmony with all life) IS DEATH.

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 6:23

God is not mocked.

And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth. Revelation 11:18

SNIPPETS:

As the pace of global warming kicks into overdrive, the hollow optimism of climate activists, along with the desperate responses of some of the world's most prominent climate scientists, are preventing us from focusing on the survival requirements of the human enterprise.

The environmental establishment continues to peddle the notion that we can solve the climate problem.

We can't.

We have failed to meet nature's deadline. In the next few years, this world will experience progressively more ominous and destabilizing changes.  These will happen either incrementally -- or in sudden, abrupt jumps.

Under either scenario, it seems inevitable that we will soon be confronted by water shortages, crop failures, increasing damages from extreme weather events, collapsing infrastructures, and, potentially, breakdowns in the democratic process itself. ... ...

This slow-motion collapse of the planet leaves us with the bitterest kind of awakening. For parents of young children, it provokes the most intimate kind of despair.  For people whose happiness derives from a fulfilling sense of achievement in their work, this realization feels like a sudden, violent mugging. For those who feel a debt to all those past generations who worked so hard to create this civilization we have enjoyed, it feels like the ultimate trashing of history and tradition. For anyone anywhere who truly absorbs this reality and all that it implies, this realization leads into the deepest center of grief.
