A couple of days ago now, I heard a statement, the truth of which bothered me. In the coming years, when climate change issues may truly rear their heads and go "rawr!", it is accurate to think that the economic situations in countries relying on fossil fuels (and causing the damage) will get into seriously dire situations, but come on - most of them will be organized enough to do something, help sustain, protect, and transfer their people through, at least most of the way.
But it is always and most certainly, the least culpable for the drastic times who will suffer its wrath the greatest.
People always want to change where things are going - and God give them strength, blessing, and direction to do so - but there are too many people who are completely lost already. They have nothing, they rely on charity from others, and they even then rarely see it, as it isn't always given, and it doesn't always reach the right destination.
So here is a problem - I have never been to anyplace affected in such a way, hell I haven't left the country since we made Canada trips require passports. But I believe truly there is something that must be done, and it is an area I am looking at with great interest - finding a way to save others from us. I currently want to examine a refugee/displaced person encampment that allows those inhabiting to sustain themselves in a entirely cyclical nature, such as all roles use all/ account for all outputs of all other roles.
My feeling is, when the chips are down, people revert to using what they have to survive - barter and trading, saving and hoarding - a kit of parts, an addition to currently existing camp forms that enables a cycle to begin, or an entire new unit of design that does it all - that is what I am passionate about.
