Jeremy Rifkin on global issues and the future of our planet




There is hardly anything I need to add of what he says - this is hitting the nail on the head - perhaps my only criticism is that he doesn't tell us (to the ground citizens) how to organize ourselves... Yes i have a PC, Yes I have a garden, Yes the sun and the wind hits everyday... but yet all his solutions require an organize "GOVERNMENT", that in itself I fear would bring "business, promoters, traders, speculators..." and we'll end up in not much different position to the one we are right now "MONEY MAKES THE WORLD GO AROUND"


A few weeks back (22nd of March) was World-Water-Day, and every news channel underline how (individual humans) have to stop, think and reflect before using your running water at home, we should all understand how much is wasted  in simple everyday things (in bath, in cleaning, in toilet flush, brushing teeth...) yet no one single tv channel addressed how the millions of gallons of water are wasted by the industry (Mining, Chemical or Oil)... Plenty of speculator are exploiting minerals (that still have no clear use, because they don't know what to do with them), but yet governments, multinationals and companies are extracting these very same component from the earth "just in case" we might need them in a late stage (spoiling in the meantime clean sources; off course water, but also earth, air)...
