How do the actions of our government mirror feelings of resentment and show us stratification?
No one really benefits when the environment fails, i hate it so much when people put the environment in the back seat, and everyone wants to say they care, and everyone wants to throw money at it, but that’s not how a problem is ever fixed. What this poor Earth is dying for is for people to just care, not to make a big stick and be in negotiations for years on end but just to really care. I am the biggest tree hugger and pictures of cleared acres of the rain forest actually make me cry. I am a member of the arbor foundation and every year on Arbor Day, i make it my personal business to plant ten trees, and three bushes. We all talk about minority groups well here is the saddest one we know, our planet!

ReplyDeleteDoes the environment fit the criteria for minority group status?
