I dont normally post things like this but I think we need to start thinking about the state of our planet ( all too late actually to start thinking).. Today i got a call from my brother hes comming to stay with me because hes lost everything yesterday in Victoria a southern state of Australia normally known for it cold to temprate climate we had temps of 45 degrees basically ABOVE your boiling kettle!!!!! my brother and his WHOLE TOWN was burnt to the ground!!!! they were lucky to escape with there lives 65 others were found dead (the toll is rising) in there cars trying to escape this horrible fire storm. Just think we need to start saving not only ourselves from the ravages of our personal addictive behaviour but from our collective addiction to everything easy!!!!!!!! look what we have done to poor mother earth!!!!!!!

I totally agree capt and have mentioned it on another thread. We have to start seeing the signs that mother nature is giving us, to protect our planet for our generation and the many many to follow. NOW is the time to act, before its too late.

Yes, Cap. My problems pale in comparison. A few of us here (my place) have friends in one of the burnt out towns, and will be giving support anyway we can. Can't get to them just yet. Need to keep roads free for emergency services.

Oh my dear Sweet Capt.
I heard about the horrible fires on the news, and immediately thought of you and yours. I am glad that your brother is ok. You are right in what you say about our planet. Man is a gluttonous creature, and it will be the end of us.

Cap,
I became an envromentilist back in the 70's when gas was deregulated and the ozone layer first became an issue. People still talk about the great depretion but seem to have forgotten about odd even gas days and 1hour or longer gas lines. When all these energy saving ideas started appering everywhere, I did chukle alitte because I've been practicing them for years.

I only hope that ,with all the other pressing issues going on right now, people don't forget about the environment and let things slide as they did in the 80's .

I'm so sorry to hear about your. But gratfully he did make it out alive. Your family will be in my prayers.

OH! Capt. I just finished reading the news about these horrible fires....good to hear that your family is safe.....so much loss of human life. As to people learning to protect the earth, conserve energy and take all measures needed to replenish rather than strip the planet....I am right there with you, Capt. I could really go on a rant about this.....but, I will save that for another time.

Wishing all a Safe, Sober Sunday,

xxx Kate
