I know that the environmentalists continue to warn us about global warming, but I'm beginning to feel that in the long run, the greatest danger to us all is just the plain old universe. We can do whatever we want, try our very best to protect ourselves, and in the end Mother Nature is going to shrug and just do what she pleases.
Should we spend billions and billions on a cap and trade system that won't do one lick of good to curb emissions at all, or spend that money and move people out of earthquake prone zones? If we really want to save lives, what's the better way to spend our money?
Of course, if we really wanted to save lives, the first thing we should do is equip every single car with drug / alcohol detection equipment, but that's a different moral and legal argument.
Also, if I lived in California, I'd be looking at what happened to Japan and I'd start making plans to move out. That country was one of the best prepared, and in a matter of seconds so much was destroyed or wiped out. What's California going to look like if the same sort of earthquake and tsunami happens there? Maybe to the LA basin?
Enough of the doom and gloom. If you're reading this, thanks for stopping by. If I don't see you, have a good day, a good evening and a good night.
