Being a regular viewer of 60 Minutes, that’s where I’ll expect to see that the recall has successfully been accomplished.

The war between valuing wealth vs. the intrinsic value of Nature will play out and Mother Nature WILL win, one way or another.

Those who do not value Nature will not be able to buy their way out of this battle. If they do not suffer the consequences of their choices, surely their children and grandchildren will.

It is a sad saga. Most sad, because there are choices in the matter, and the greedy are destroying the whole.
