Apparently the U.S. consumes 207% of its ecological capacity, according to
this article. I just don't understand what its going to take to get people to understand that its not alright to keep up this way and that shits gotta change in a drastic manner in order for things to work out alright... Why doesn't everyone else see the beauty of solar energy, its legitimately just about free, pays for itself in no time, harvesting the sun. And if there are ways around using oil, then why haven't we started using them yet? Get the solar energy to power the solar panel making company to power more solar panels to power everything else that we mess up by using oil. And we need to stop being dumb about food too. Its not alright to give people meat that comes from cows that are standing knee deep in their own shit... or chickens that are bred to have more meat to them and therefore their muscles develop faster than their organs can handle and the things cant even stand up for more than two seconds. I tried to eat chicken fingers the other day and I just couldnt even look at them.
Something's gotta give.
"I want my money back, I'm down here drowning in your fat, you got me on my knees praying for everything you lack. I ain't afraid of you, I'm just a victim of your fear, you cower in your tower praying that I'll disappear. I got another plan, one that requires me to stand. On the stage or in the street, don't need no microphone or beat. And if you hear this song, if you ain't dead then sing along, bang and strum to these here drums 'til you get where you belong.
I got a list of demands, written on the palm of my hand. I ball my fist and you gonna know where I stand. We're living hand to mouth! You wanna be somebody, see somebody try to free somebody. I got a list of demands written on the palm of my hand." - Saul Williams
