Time will not save us

EV's will not save us

Plant based diets will not save us

Guns will not save us

Technology will not save us

Fossil fuels irreparably wrecked our climate

Methane puts heat into overdrive

No future will remotely resemble now

Civilized society disappears

No emergency services

No medical services

No law enforcement

Millions flee cities

Only to find

Inescapable Violence

Starvation

Death

I keep working and maintain my routine to survive for now.

Shorn of their trees - an environmental disaster

A very apposite read as Trump trumpets about jobs for Coal – Make Coal Great Again! Which is the last thing of course that environmentalists want to happen, especially if retrieving that said coal means strip mining off forests and taking the top of mountains!

Coal is one of the worst air pollutants (see London Smog) and burning it and mining it is a sure way to ill-health and eventually death for the miner – my husband’s grandfather was a coal-miner.

The lack of legislation still, in the US, about health insurance, working conditions and environmental responsibilities makes me very glad I don’t live there. And this novel is a telling tale that reminds us why not to go and live in the Appalachians.

So not a fun read, but a worthy read and one that reminds us that the technological revolution has brought misery to many as well as life improvements to others, and that we humans are raping our planet’s riches and destroying our life giving eco-systems.
