Uturn: Transient killers from Valdez and Prince Williams Sound

These guys are known as the 'AT'. They are functionally extinct. From 20 plus in the pod down to 6 individuals. Why? Exxon. The Oil spill. These 'killers' came with a message attached: our journey had thus far consisted in driving as far north as Tuktoyaktuk to see where all the oil came from that made the gasoline to fill up our tanks to go to Tuk in the first place, and now we were 'returning' south, to the Valdez area, where the oil is shipped out, and landed in the 20 year old wake of a giant entropy spill. Looks like we subconsciously followed the money. Time for another Uturn?

Thought

People say we are destroying the environment. I beg to differ: I think we're destroying ourselves, and taking most of the environment with us. Example: Global warming is not the issue. Neither is 'biodiversity loss'. It's how we organize ourselves as a species that's the problem. Is our social reality sustainable? No, and here's why: smoke from a machine, 'development' and habitat loss, these are more the symptoms, the physical manifestations (or Entropy) of a deeper societal process which is to increase productivity and profit, i.e., to increase the concentration of power and energy in the hands of a few individuals - at everyone else's expense. Agree to change that imbalance of power, to modify the current power system and install a true democracy where power is shifted from the wallet back to the ballot, to be shared by all, and you will see a lot less smoke. Unknowingly perhaps, you will be agreeing to a sustainable world made of ecological, human societies - without anthropogenic climate change, without species loss. Without war? Onward thru the BS -- as in belief system.
