6. That's the problem, isn't it?

I've been intimately aware of the looming bottleneck for human societies for the last 15 years. The degree of futility and helplessness I feel as a single individual looking at a planet-sized catastrophe that is buttressed by insurmountable barriers social and economic cannot be overstated.

The best response I've been able to muster is contracting my own footprint as much as possible, and becoming a vocal witness to the unfolding calamity.

That and $5.00 will buy me a Starbucks latte.
