"Just a week after a nonprofit revealed that the U.S. is lagging behind other developed countries in energy efficiency, a research firm’s data shows that the nation is the leader in denying climate change."

The Silent Spring for today’s environmental activists, Earth Calling: A Climate Change Handbook for the 21st Century
"Here’s a page from a climate change handbook, Earth Calling:
Rather than looking at the crises we face as issues on a to-do list, we need to see beneath the words to the real messages trying to get through to us.
We as a culture are unmatched at assembling facts and events into a mosaic of a condition-at-large and taking it on with hard work and a can-do attitude. We have giant hearts and giving and compassionate natures. Why isn’t this enough to motivate us to look more deeply, to make sense of this, and to demand change of our leaders and ourselves?
To begin to answer this, we need to understand how different this challenge is from anything we have ever faced before. We need to see this as a call to our spirits to awaken and look at the earth and our relationship to her differently. And we need to understand where things have come apart, where we are broken, and why and how we can fix ourselves, each other, and the conditions that are harming our planet.
We can all take a leaf out of Ellen Gunter and Ted Carter’s Earth Calling: A Climate Change Handbook—to see the interconnectedness of all things, understand the deeper truths about climate change and discover a roadmap for finding our own call to action."
http://ecowatch.com/...0ad26f-85901709The bold statements are generally from the pre-1970 America. Since then, the dumbing down and multitudes allowed in who had nothing to do with winning WWII or going to the Moon. We have to dial one for English? We HAVE to "celebrate diversity"? How about celebrating biological diversity and not celebrating the huge human diversity, to the point of near speciation. The culture we had is being ruined also. It is sickening, to me. - See more at:
