Almost every day now, one news cast or another is running a "green" story. Species are dying out, forests are disappearing at an alarming rate, fish populations are crashing, the glaciers and polar ice caps are melting faster than we thought just last year, are just a few of the now timely topics.
We still have naysayers twisting bits and pieces of legitimate studies and reports to suit their needs, often to the point of outright lying. I'd like to know what purpose is served by that kind of thinking, but really don't want to go into it now.
My current question is about the sudden interest in being green. I want to know where the hell these reporters, anchors, commentators, editorialists, show runners and powers that be were when all of this could have made a difference? I hope that somewhere, sometime, they wake up in the middle of the night and know, with soul chilling certainty, that their inaction and disinterest has contributed to the dying planet they are leaving the children of this world, including their own.
