Original connection:
Mass of emails whizzing around the enviro groups I’m in

Climate change and a post peak oil world
Guilty of:
Giving others a hard time for not doing enough to cut their CO2 emissions, just wish they would realise I am trying to save them, not alienate them?

There is no profit, except the miracle of life of it’s self
Will we save ourselves now we have the chance?:
If we work together without conditions we have a chance, but I still shed a tear for our children’s, children at the possibility that we might not do enough!

Biography:

I’m just a tiny speck of life in a wonderful huge life miracle on this planet. I am trying to take responsibility for my actions in every way. Now I know and understand the past actions of humans including myself I do not want to be part of the catalyst that destroys life, as we know it.
