    parece que volvemos a la edad media pero sin una religión que no someta.
    parece que volvemos a la edad media pero con armas de fuego. La religión en
    la edad media, controlaba toda Europa, es la época obscura de la ciencia,
    porque si te atrevías a decir que el planeta era redondo te torturaban,
    ahora todo eso cambió, ahora nos somete la televisión, la hora excesiva en
    las redes sociales , y gente que se cree poeta que ofende a Darío. Por
    favor ayuden a que lean los jóvenes.

    The inventor of the diesel engine warned about the dangers of air
    pollution, and designed his engine to run on plant oils (oringinally peanut
    oil). Look at the difference between the emissions from running diesel
    engines on plant oils- and petroleum oil. The reason diesel engines are run
    on petroleum? The oil industry was already incredibly powerful before the
    turn of the last century.

    Eco-agriculture uses natural life processes to sustain and restore soils,
    the water cycle, and sequesters huge amounts of carbon- if done properly.
    Grazing/ browsing livestock *properly managed* are one of the best tools
    for sequestering carbon in soils, whilst producing quality protein food for
    people. See Allan Savory, Holistic Management International.

    Oil companies are not just in bed with the government it is the government.
    I’d say corporations are the government.
    The Age of Stupid, I’d say the age of stupid egos and emotions.

    Pretty accurate as to timing – should probably have emphasized more the
    chaos and destruction that must occur as societies and ecosystems collapse.
    Its has happened before naturally – 250 ma ago when 95% of all species on
    Earth became extinct due to runaway warming among other things.

    The least these oil companies can do is build hospitals, schools and water
    treatment plants in the communities they essentially ruin with their
    operations. It is truly shameful that on top of all the environmental
    damage they do, they just pick up and leave the residents in those
    communities as high and dry as the wells. How do these CEOs sleep at
    night?!
