| 7. Planet stupid: 35 years of head-in-sand idiocy |
|
We have known since the early 70's right where we were headed and, other than a brief interlude of conservation in the mid-to-late 70's we have resolutely headed in exactly the wrong direction. We are fucked, but what is truly maddening is that lots of really bright and powerful people knew quite well just how fucked we were going to be and decided to let it all happen. They got together every year in Davos and other hot spots for the planetary elite, to discuss what? How they would ride out the storm? Where the safe havens would be?
