Uturn: Harding Ice field

Harding Ice field

More than 30 glaciers grace the slopes of coastal Kenai, they join in the middle and together form the 1000 square mile Ice field known as Harding Ice field. There's enough ice in it to cover the state of Rhode Island. To imagine the area, think of a yooge angel cake with loads of icing. The ice field is the middle of the cake, its center filled with ice, so much so it's overflowing, over the cake and down the other side, where you are, looking up, at its edge. Bon appétit!

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.
