Having lived in Tuscon, for several years, many years ago, I was glad to see the above article cover such a crucially important topic ... I tend to agree with Geoffrey Chia, M.D., that there will be a remnant left ... but for different reasons than he states ...
Guy McPherson lists a frightening number of positive feed backs that are already going on. One of the most concerning ones is " the Methane Bomb" ... A growing number of the experts who are researching the arctic methane issue – are coming to the same conclusion … The methane trigger has already been pulled … The bullet is already speeding towards its target …(See for example: http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/28490-the-methane-monster-roars ...)
The implications for passing this and other MAJOR tipping points - are of BIBLICAL proportions … consistent with the near term playing out of the Biblical End Times prophecies …
Please, take a deep breath, and then take a moment to let what I just said – sink in … It is not hype … It is not exaggeration … The reality now facing the human race is on a scale unlike anything humans have ever faced before …
You'd think this would be the topic of the day from one end of the planet to the other… But it's not. So many are “asleep” … unaware … caught up in their own little worlds … uninformed or intentionally misinformed, as the case may be … by powerful forces at play ( like the GOP and their Big Corporate sponsors) that even still deny the very reality of what is becoming so obvious … and so tremendously foreboding … They intentionally try to “confuse the issue” so as to avoid a consensus for action from within the public at large …and the governments that “represent” them … And all the while,they continue to worship their idol (the almighty $$) blind to the fact that what is coming will mean an end to even that ...
If you are a Christian, like myself, you may well recall, especially around Christmas time, messages about another coming (the Second Coming) of Christ to earth, only this time not as a baby – not even close …A growing number of Christians believe that we are, in fact, living in the “End Times” and that that “Second Coming” will be soon… They point to the fulfillment of almost all of the “End Time”prophecies in the Bible … and all too many use this belief as a COP OUT for not doing anything about such tremendous challenges as Climate Change …
I believe the growing body of scientific evidence suggests that mankind has ignored the warnings of scientists for way too long, doing far too little,far too late … I believe it is to the point where Jesus will once again have to come to save us … from ourselves … BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN WE DON'T CONTINUE TO DO OUR PART– to become better stewards of God's creation that we have so recklessly damaged … to work for more justice in response to the fact that those least responsible for the Climate Crisis are the ones suffering the most …and to follow Jesus' example and truly love and serve our fellow men and women by helping those in need better cope with the ravages of Climate Change …
There is a GRIEVING PROCESS to go through as these earth-shattering realities hit home …
GET EDUCATED with the latest information ( as with Jamail's article above ). GO THROUGH THE GRIEVING PROCESS … Pray … and then come out the other side –more in touch with a terrible but crucially important reality … and more able, therefore, to respond appropriately – whatever that might mean for each of us as individuals … and as members of our tragically dysfunctional human family …
