getting political

the price of oil is at an all time high and rising, global warming threatens life as we know it on this planet, our leaders have not committed to a plan of action on renewable energy, the food crisis is currently affecting a hundred million people worldwide, there are over six billion people on this planet and not enough fresh drinking water, religious intolerance creating geo-political instability, politicians battling each other like professional wrestlers, further division is not the answer, division is not the answer, greed and fear seem to be the driving forces of modern life, we’re encouraged to consume and consume with no thought of where it all comes from or where it all goes, our lives are accelerating as we fall out of touch with nature and ancient myth, we’re desperately in need of a brand new dream [ben lee. 2008]
