If the earth was a business, if it were to be managed properly, you’d kill off all the animals that you couldn’t eat, experiment on, or ride for amusement. You’d wipe out the forests and plant food crops. You’d take money spent on weapons and reality TV and use it instead to create ways to regulate the environment. You’d look into mining the moon, cold fusion, nano-construction, that sort of gear.
You do that and things should tick right along. And you’ll have to, eventually.
What else can there be? Eventually we’ll all be standing shoulder to shoulder in a living museum where we can’t touch anything or it might go extinct and with better and better medicine we’ll get to stand there a long time, while more and more of us keep popping up. Something’s got to give. It’s simple physics.
There isn’t room for everything.
Should we do the noble thing and kill ourselves off to save the planet? Mass cullings every century, or generation. Our entire species becoming Jesus? It’s only purpose to constantly sacrifice itself to save the world. Caretakers of a garden, nurturing and aiding the other species and then throwing ourselves into the sea or maybe a volcano. Which ever was handy. Maybe the bodies would have to be shot into space, as burying or burning them would contaminate the garden. Rocket powered Ascension to Eden. Go Jesus Go.
Heavy.
Ah, well that won’t happen for a little while yet. Not my problem. Every age had it’s problems. The Middle Ages had that pesky Black Death, the Thirties had the Depression and the future will have the Jesus thing. My only problem is the price of diesel fuel. Not that bad really. Probably won’t die from it. Now and then there’s a lull I guess.

We should do the noble thing and try our best to save the planet. It's like your house. Don't you take care of your house? I bet you wouldn’t live in a nasty and unhealthy house, so think of the environment as your home.
Speaking of home, that's where all of my major changes started as I became more and more involved with this whole going green thing. One of the best things that I've done so far was switch to bioheat and it's awesome. Have you ever heard of it? It's made of heating oil blended with organic materials like soybean oil and avocado. It's kind to the heating system, and the best part about it all is that it's non-toxic and biodegradable. How cool is that? It's definitely my best friend during the winter.
I found out about bioheat through my job here at NORA. I did a bit more research and found out a lot of info from:

Check it out and see what other info it has to offer that may be helpful to you!
that's right kids oilheatamerica.com is a proud sponsor of SJ and fully endorses and agrees with all it's content past and future.
Hahahahahaha!!
