has pulled me off the road and onto a siding. This won't last long, but i can report that out there in america there are still way too many people who don't seem to care that they, and their behavior choices, are creating suffering and damaging the earth. It really is that simple. The equations are too obvious to be ignored.
Take for example the way in which we discard and handle our waste/trash. I have spent considerable periods of time on archeaological digs of middens, some 1000 years old, still others 5000 years old. All that is left in those middens are bones, and shards of stone or pottery, and maybe rarely some pieces of fabric tied in bundles to be protected. None of the middens, even those less than 300 years old, produce toxic leechate or other heinous hazardous material. The technology simply didn't exist to toxify the water and earth, to damage and kill other species by human trash.
Today, that is all changed. A landfill, incinerator, processing unit, whatever, is a toxic circus nightmare, giving up after each rain a little of this or that poison or toxin into water or soil. These hazmats and toxic substances have inordinate half lives, some as long as forever in some cases. Recent studies on citizens who have spent their lives in the state of Washington show that these people have accumulated levels of some of these chemical wastes that are permanently hazardous to their health. They didn't knowingly put them in their bodies; it was just living and eating, drinking and breathing, the environment of WA that has created this problem. It is much worse for other species. To deny one's complicity in this, or worse, to justify behaving in this manner is criminal misconduct--it is attempted murder.
So why do so many keep doing it???
