they start voting in mass or start voting as if their lives depend on it then are going to have a very tough row to hoe. I say this because the worst to come will not affect me...I am old. But it will affect my children, my grandchildren, and technology nor Jesus will not save us from this very real reality.

For Democracies that can still choose their leaders it is time to stop voting on those that continue to ignore the reality of climate change. It doesn't have to be this way but to expect the fossil fuel industry to care is naive. We actually continue to subsidize the very corporations that are destroying our climate, our air, our health.
