The Amazon burning is a reminder of humanity’s pathological irreverence toward the earth, a self-destructive dysfunction from which we will heal or possibly not even survive as a species. This is more than a climate crisis; it is a survival crisis, and it should be seen as such.

Like all other issues confronting us the climate crisis is a moral crisis. Humanity is at a crossroads: we need to choose between a system that allows greed to run rampant over the survival needs of the species, or a state of consciousness where such a thing would be unthinkable.

Our ability to take in the horror of what is happening environmentally & summon the courage to do something about it will determine the most critical choice in humanity’s history: whether to continue the journey of evolution or through our own selfishness & greed elect to end it.

It’s actually only a survival crisis

People laughed at your earlier tweets, but now they carry more undeniable prescience. You influence and understand the Ethos more than anyone else on the stage. Another one of your unique qualifications.

We are showing what we are made of by our inability to cherish what is beautiful and worthy. We're failing a very real test of our character.

How much of this bad relationship with nature is rooted in our Judeo-Christian roots? I suspect a great deal finds its source there, Marianne.

Have you watched Fahrenheit 11/9? We need someone who can overcome the system and look beyond saying yes to the billionaires. You are that person- the world could be a different place.

Then stop smoking all the plants. We need them for oxygen.

🕉 @marwilliamson, if you are what I thought you are, you would praise GOD for burning all that there is to change the crops & things. We all are dispensable in the eyes of our Creator. In this last hour, we must put on the armor of light, so we grow again. It is done. 🕉 @Scotus

100% right Marianne - sadly very few people can see that climate change is merely one aspect of a global biospheric crisis being caused by our industrial civilisation; and fewer realized it is a survival challenge for our species which we will either pass or fail this century.
