I don't think wanting the future to have less of the kinds of disasters that may be preventable, or at least able to be mitigated, is in any way "negative". Wanting to make the world a better place, for our kids or someone else's, is a positive, in my opinion. Nor do I think trying to anticipate the possibility of harmful situations is "untrue", since the more information you have, the better you can make plans. |
Thank you my friend. I think the forum is very interesting and varied.
Yes I see your point and of course it is valid as you put it. I see the
fear as negative....especially the fear of change. The untruth is that
(1): You can predict the short term future of the planet
(2): We have had a better deal than our forefathers.. but our children will not have. That sounds like pessimism rather than logic.
