the latter part of the kids' life, their 50's, 60's, 70's are going to be fubar. I am saddened about the impending environmental and other catastrophes that are going to make life difficult for multi-billions.

One of my deepest wishes, always, was to not be here when the shit hits the fan in an unmistakable manner that cannot be denied as climate change/global warming. Sorry I'm being selfish here, but at 70 I don't want to see the systems that sustain human and animal life breaking down, mother earth turned into a wasteland of misery for the poor and struggling. Don't get me wrong it seems mother earth is fighting back in the manner of your OP and in other ways. Still, we are running out of fresh water and on and on it goes. The Connecticut size glob of plastic of all types floating in the s. pacific. Containers ect .

And a potus and administration that does not care how everyday people will be impacted. Like someone said here, somewhere, maybe we'll get a roll of paper towels thrown to us. And the'lucky' ones will be able to score an "I don't care, do U" coat.
