Ecocidism
RIO +20 will go down in history as a major turning point in global history when ecocidism became acceptable to world leaders and corporations and apparently the people at large. The ecocidists achieved nothing which was evidently their goal. Henceforth, I will refer to all so called "deniers" as "ecocidists" since their goal seems to be the collective suicide of the human race and most forms of life which they can achieve by simply doing nothing. I think we need a ecocidist list or directory so we know who these zombies are so we can not only use the ballot but also our consumers dollar to defeat them. It should be obvious that if we want to save this planet the people will have to do it because the vested interests won't. In the past 20 years, the fight for the environment has gone downhill. What makes you think the next 20 years will be any different? It won't be unless the people act. Every day that goes by without action is one less day for mankind. Never in the history of the human race have we faced such a stark reality yet we are all watching what is going on like it's a B movie but it's never going to end and we will be playing a supportive role by default unless we decide not to. This is not a foregone conclusion but it could be: all it takes is for good people, who should know better, to do nothing. A lot more people have to quit playing supportive roles and start playing leading roles in what will become "The Greatest Story Ever Told".
