Comment on 100 Year Weather Event, or the future of life in the Pacific Northwest? by Bruce Litton

Thought more about whether or not enough will be done. That all depends. But given the depth or the economic slump, my hunch is that climate change will not be a major concern. If we had a super-productive economy, then we might find ways to deal with the problem. So just as we’re starting to pick up economically again, who knows–wham! The first waves of disaster confront us. One thing certain–just because it’s inconvenient doesn’t mean it’s impossible. I’m worried about the coming solar storms. I’m not fully informed about whether not our many nuclear reactors have functions in place to keep the power going for the long period of time to cool reactors if the power grids fail. The Carrington Event in 1859, I think it was, would have fried the grid by the amount of radiation released by electrical surges. That sort of solar event, who knows, could happen again. We should be prepared and we don’t have backup equipment for the grid from what I’ve gathered.

Yes, I agree we could do much by thinking differently about climate, mother nature and her control. Although we have contributed to global warming, the universe is all about expansion and our place on the planets voyage through space. Change is always something we can count on. How we adapt and anticipate change is ultimately our creative unfoldment. Thanks for albertideation.

Heard about the heavy snow, further north I guess. At least you have water. Other places in the country are running out. I hear places in the southwest have five years left. Global warming is certainly not just warming, but major weather pattern change. Measurements are being conducted on arctic methane releases in the millions of tons, which is speeding up the process bearing down on us.

Comment on Petition time for SB 525 by Tree Khartam

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, even with lots of friends with firepits, I DON”T WANT these things. Please don’t make me start calling businesses that give them money and begging them to stop. They can even keep handing out phone books if they want, as long as I can opt out (as I can with junk mail of both paper and electronic variety, which causes less and much less waste). Please. I don’t want any more phone books. Help.

Comment on Improving the world via what we share on Social Networks by albertkaufman

I agree, we do need some stupid. But we also need to be creating the world we want to be in. For me, that’s a smart world. It’s an evolving world. There’s a chance here to take this medium and make it ours. I see it turning into a giant Hallmark Card at times, that’s what I’m pushing back against.

but sometimes, and certainly not always – stupid can be funny – and we do all need some humor these days. For example, Jon Stewart highlights stupidity all the time – and his humor is what keeps some of us going, yes?
