Through the collective efforts and will of nay extended family, elders, and mentors, I have been able to push back the edges of that numbness, at least enough to see, in a brief gap of clarity on the addicting distant horizon, a question taking shape--a question-mark-shaped cloud that will someday soon grow to fill the entire sky above our heads: We humans, all of us, need to ask ourselves: in the midst of accelerating global warming, diminishing oil reserves, skyrocketing cancer rates, disappearing forests, mass-extinctions, addicting and all the addicting rest, how can we possibly survive if we stay on the path we're on? My research indicates that if we combine the power we can harness from solar, wind, wave, biomass, biofuels, geothermal, and whatever other renewable sources we invent, we still won't be able to meet the industrialized world's current power usage.
