So you want to go to the sun this winter but you feel a little guilty about your carbon footprint. Thats a cute catchphrase, maybe knowing it and using it will reduce your guilt. and recycling or carpooling or using a cloth shopping bag.Its not gonna make a helluva lot of difference.We need to go a lot farther than that, I'm not talking sacrifice here, I'm tallking about burrowing into your innermost being until you find the place that IS the earth, where the connection with your land base is so vital that your revulsion at the destruction tears at your guts and you run into the street screaming . What are we waiting for? If you are not crying about the destruction of the wild salmon, what is there to cry about? Are we going to sit back and stare at our computer screens and hope industry will wake up? Maybe the problem is hope? what is hope? a wish for the future over which you have no agency. That's it, letting go of any responsibility for our own future. Gee, I hope the salmon survive.In the meantime, let's go to Mexico.
