We have a values crisis. Not a climate crisis. Over the last few generations, we have dismissed the concepts of right and wrong and replaced them with career advancement and fame. I do not blame the author for his effort at career management. He is the product of a long line of poseurs who he has seen achieve accolades despite being startling wrong in their work.
That line include Paul Ehrlich and his Malthusian predictions through the climate cooling scare that suddenly become a warming scare and leads directly to Dr Fauci and our COVID publicity seekers. Wealth is more important than honor in our world today. Our media is full of proven liars. Yet they still get air time and invitations to speak at college graduations.
I beseech you, please share with me one institution that you feel you can trust in our society today. Today’s “heroes” are constructed out of thin air to support a Potemkin village of a society.
But then again, fall is right around the corner and that’s always a nice time of the year. So we have that going for us, right?
I was not born yet when Paul Ehrlich was making his prognostications, but I recently saw a clip of an interview with him. What a smug prick. And he was dead wrong.
But still worshipped by some segments of society. I also remember Carl Sagan predicting during the first Iraq War that If Saddam set fire to his oil wells it would catastrophically cool the planet. Smug is an excellent word.

Yes, Ehrlich has been dead wrong for fifty years, and is still talking as if he isn't.
But still worshipped by some segments of society. I also remember Carl Sagan predicting during the first Iraq War that If Saddam set fire to his oil wells it would catastrophically cool the planet. Smug is an excellent word.
Maybe the NTSB. At least so far they haven't insisted that social justice crashed the plane.
And the USPS is pretty good, all things considered
The national weather service NWS. Facts are still facts, and I can double check with my own thermometer
The local vote counters. Yours may be crooked, but mine are ok.
