yeah, it's disgusting what has happened to Fort McMurray, you can see the place from space... looking at north America, on google earth, it stands out like a sore thumb. They want to do the same thing here in Saskatchewan now, makes me sad, destroying our beautiful province.
Also, one of the biggest, if not the biggest concerns that should be at top priority of people is our food. Chemicals can not be used on the land anymore as it is destroying the soil, our health, and our future. My family run a certified organic oil crushing plant, mainly Flax oil (should be apart of everyone's diet), and we buy as much organic foods as possible, and keep processed foods to a minimum. The food people are eating is the main culprit to the rise in cancer these days, and many many other health issues/diseases.
I bring up these other issues because we just don't have one problem of transportation... I could go on, and on, and on, page after page of just a note of the problems in the world. It's everywhere. Something has to change... and I hate to say it, but the world cannot support 6+billion people for much longer, something has to give. I can see something happening soon, as so many things are coming to a crossroads: political, geographical, biological processes, astronomical/ cycles... it's scary really, there are too many coincidences to just say poof poof. Maybe those year 2012 prophecies have something to them?
