We Are Our Home

This is our home.

It's a simple disgust that I have for simple thinking when it comes to this planet. And clearly left-field (far-right) interruptions of thought for anyone not actively taking favor or money from an industry that is not only too big to fail (yet), but accumulates wealth (value, purpose, meaning) far and beyond any sort of industrial field, disturb the mind in such a way that often I lose words to describe it. But the feeling, the overall sense of loss in such a monumental disruption, is profound and heart-wrenching. 

I can describe it. I will describe it. The future, if truly unwritten, will understand my strife. Division cannot seek focus and self-sustenance. Crisis is not the great unifier. Ignorance is the key to destruction, and this planetary family NEEDS to KNOW that it is acting ignorantly. If I could somehow counsel my Elders and Ancestors, I would.

Think of your everyday, walking-around kind of life... Your needs, wants, concerns... Your five senses, the comforts of society, the benefits that all of that energy made possible. Imagine all of those ideas - the very concept of the life you've built - being completely torn apart, and no longer making sense to you or anyone else you meet along the way.

It's going to get hot. Very hot. Unsurprisingly, temperature affects people's temperament. The strain on our thinking may yet be what leads to us not being able to cohesively decide what we are to do about this. Extremely hot weather likely leads to upticks in violence and crime, incongruity of thought, irrational behavior... The system is taxing poverty, and the return is often widespread suffering.
Surely, it is all-encompassing. Every act or intent falls foot in some way or another. But the decomposition of the ecology and biospheric harmony which belies all of our good-doings, our great deeds, and our triumphs, if continually pulled further and further into imbalance, will take all of those victories and make them forever IRRELEVANT. Everything we do, everything we are, is this -- our Home.

Let us call a spade a spade: fossil fuels. Emissions are one thing, but we need to narrow our focus on an infrastructure that has long been fueled by fossil fuels' easy gains for at least 120 years. That existing infrastructure MUST GO. We need to burn that bridge and let it fall. Abandon all hope ye who enter here that take money from fossil fuel companies, because we already know what replaces you. And it's not a better version of you, nor a reformed version of you, IT ISN'T YOU. There is NO clean coal, and oil boiled out of sand (by fresh water) will never save you.
 


Some tracts of religiosity foresee divine intervention (!), an anomalous act of saviourhood in a galaxy that is mostly filled with planets at various levels of development. That idea has escaped their view. Dogmatic beliefs which promote inaction are most certainly to be confronted by a reality that demands IMMEDIATE action.

I take this time to speak about this planet we love. I cannot say or unsay anything that has not been said twice or a million times about his planet. We're getting close to a critical point of failure, and humanity as a whole needs to start backing away from the edge. That edge is real and close, but if averted, humanity is going to go through some very breathtaking and amazing advances, not seen in hundreds of thousands of years.

I speak to all of Earth, and anyone beyond. Help us. Help all of us. We want to come into equilibrium, we want balance,
 

harmony

ENLIGHTENMENT.
 
ASCENSION.

WE ARE OUR HOME.
