Sure, there has always been change, but we can do some things about it.

We can stop the deforestation quite a bit. We can use less fossil fuels
and just plain overall conservation.

Big question, how much are we willing to give up? Not just the US, but
the world.

This will get people riles up.
If it is better for the earth and humanity long term would we:
Drive a smaller car
Get rid of cruise ships
Adjust the thermostat
Fly less
Build smaller houses
Accept slower delivery times if it is more efficient
Use less chemicals on lawns
Probably another 100 things like these.


I would say the #1 issue is using less water. We are going to run out
of fresh water long before we ever run out of oil or be flooded from
rising seas. There are other options for energy but water is what it
is. We can desalinate enough sea water to drink but we can't get
enough to grow food.
