ALL these incidents were the result of using fossil fuels.
We just can't continue doing this without eventually killing ourselves.
I grew up in a coal mining town and know it's just not healthy but all this shit going on since the 70's has taken it over the limit.
I probably don't have much time on this earth but I'd rather hand off the world in at least a liveable condition.
Even better I'd like to provide a better world but that's just not possible.
The effects of our fathers choices are visited upon us and we can only build on that.

Sorry for getting a bit off topic but sometimes you have to do your penance where it might have some importance.
