The Climate Continues To Deteriorate.

Models Can Easily Become So Complex That They Are Impenetrable, Unexaminable, And Virtually Unalterable.

It Is Not Ok In This Culture To Talk To Friends About Causes You Believe In, Much Less To Ask Them To Join In. It's Ok To Blast Perfect Strangers With Crass Messages Every Hour Of The Day, But It's A Tinge Embarrassing, It Brings Up Some Shyness, It Seems An Intrusion, It Risks Rejection To Share Real Heartfelt Commitments. It's Easier To Share Our Cynicism With Strangers Than Our Dreams With Friends.

The Scarcest Resource Is Not Oil, Metals, Clean Air, Capital, Labour, Or Technology. It Is Our Willingness To Listen To Each Other And Learn From Each Other And To Seek The Truth Rather Than Seek To Be Right

The Actions Of My Government Are Not Bearable. They Devastate Our Natural Resources And Deprive Our People. The Politicians Speak Piously While Practicing Greed And Divisiveness; They Care Nothing For The Nation. I Want To Do More Than Withdraw My Support. I Want To Tar And Feather Them.

The World Is A Complex, Interconnected, Finite, Ecological - Social - Psychological - Economic System. We Treat It As If It Were Not, As If It Were Divisible, Separable, Simple, And Infinite. Our Persistent, Intractable Global Problems Arise Directly From This Mismatch.
