So much of what we actually need does grow right up out of the ground, you know? …without the need for Extraction-based material goods. We soon won’t have a choice - Extraction will some soon day become a last resort at best. Plunder is linear. The Earth’s inner space is finite, and inside of finite things, only circular things can be indefinite.

Money doesn’t grow on trees – but fulfillment, abundance, beauty, nourishment, fuel, oxygen, shelter…such things as these damn sure do. And these things are more than enough…they – along with Water & Each Other – are…everything. Aren’t they, really??

Not to be pessimistic…just gravely concerned: if Earthlings don’t go whole-sale botanical/sustainable, and pronto, people born on this July day may have almost no surviving great grandchildren…just a personal gut-feel estimate.

And though even the Sun is finite, why cut our terrestrial journey short by billions of years?

All my love.
