genetically modified foods are a nightmare, if anyone cares to investigate; the bees are all dying; the sea is a dumping ground for garbage of all types; the coral reefs are dying. global climate change is making itself better known every year.
we will be known as the generation that saw the end of the world, as it was.
the great-grandchildren will do documentaries on: "What do you remember?"
i get really annoyed at the professional prognosticators who say we have another 30 yrs to stop the global melt-down. it's here now.

Wow, I thought my depression was bad before I read this...now it's in the who gives a sh** mode.
Everything you write there is true, but what does one do about all of this? I remember protesting nukes back in the 60's, what was being done to our food/water in the 70's, ocean pollution in the 80's, and on and on. Nothing really gets done. Perhaps it will all be for the best as humans seem little more than a virus devouring its host.
Maybe we need to fast-track colonization of Mars....if nothing else it will give us an extra place to dump our garbage.
