As the title says I’m still waiting for someone to realize that Trump could be the least of our worries in the future. Sure, he’ll destroy whatever he can of Democracy and attempt to re-wright our history in his vision. But, if everything I read and hear from the scientific community is even half accurate we don’t have a lot of time left if we’re going to survive as a people. Things I read about 10 or 12 years ago that said this event or that was at least 35 or more years away are now upon us and unless you have a rocket you and I could be doomed. If not us our kids and grandkids are facing a harsh reality that no one believed could or would happen in our lifetimes. I’m 77 years old and I don’t expect to live forever so I don’t think I’ll be personally affected by everything my generation has done to this planet. The sad thing is except for a few isolated groups young people don’t seem too concerned and politicians refuse to believe it. I think the reason is that somewhere along the line people have come to believe it can’t happen. You know governments don’t think more than 8 to 10 years into the future and even right now our presidential candidates aren’t thinking about the planet their only concern is self-preservation. Trump wants to be president not because he thinks he has the answers, but because he doesn’t want to go to jail. He doesn’t believe anything about climate change or the havoc it is about to bring to our lives. He only cares that the McDonald’s near his home is open. The others have similar desires that don’t come into reality. I have lots of people saying I’m just a nay-sayer. Maybe that’s it but if any of you would take the time to look around at the weather and what nature is up to you might come around to me and what the real scientists are thinking and saying. This is FATS and LUCY saying CIAO from Medellin Colombia.
