    We could be leaving a terrible legacy for future generations, but I would like to think that attitudes are changing even though those in power seem determined to go back to the 19th century.

    Since people are driven by making profit, it is good that renewables are becoming more prevalent so there should be a good economic argument for using them over fossil fuels.

    I wish it weren't so and people thought more about the environment and the world we live in. No matter your wealth or position in society, the air we breathe is the same. NYC and other major cities under the sea, or buffeted by more extreme weather won't be good for anyone.
