Think Globally.
Act Locally.
Think Locally.
Act Globally.But mosy importantly:
Think. Act.
Thinking Globally and Acting Locally has been a
colossal failure, an idea sold to the masses by
the mainstream environmental movement in it's
winder years of "cooperation" and "compromise"
with industry.While we've all been busy trying to clean up a
local river or stop the damn next door or save
trees down the road, the Big Picture has
deteriorated to the point where we are now at
the edge of the cliff, leaning over, with very
little stopping us from falling.The trans-nationals have become more wealthy
and powerful and more destructive and they
are going to stall and make excuses and screw
around until we all get punched in the head
by Mother Earth in the next 30 or 40 years.Of course, by then it will be too late because
of acceleration (momentum) of Global Warming and
ozone depletion - just to name a couple of the
Big Picture problems we face - will be
unstoppable.The time to act is NOW. The way to act is to
do everything - locally, globally and nonviolently.Think. Speak out. Agitate. Activate. Organize.
Bring it all to a stop.
SOULUTIONS Now.
None.
