6. Apology From The Baby-Boomers: We Screwed Up

In years past, I took comfort from the fact that most of the people obstructing the creation of a better world were of World War II vintage and older. I was sure that we baby boomers would do better after the older guys passed on.

I can no longer do this. I've noticed that the people most responsible for maintaining the fossil fuel threat to ecosystems worldwide are my fellow baby-boomers. We're the guys most responsible for denying our posterity a decent, dignified, livable future.

To those who inherit the planet and biosphere after we kick off: Sorry, guys, we screwed up.

:dunce:
