As we head towards the winnowing of mankind, the realization that it's too late and nothing can be done, is hitting home. Maybe fifty years ago if we had slowed carbon emissions we would have enjoyed a few more tolerable weather years.The extinction process that effects the animal kingdom is now herding mankind towards the last roundup.It took 350 million years to end the reign of the dinosaurs,man's stewardship is about to be a very much shorter time span. The one trait you can always count on is man will over use and abuse mother nature. Just look at our track record. It took millions of years to turn dinosaurs into oil and maybe a 150 years to use it up. Now we are in the fracking era where millions of gallons of fresh water are poisoned forever just to frack one well. Then the poison is injected deep underground possibly causing earthquakes and polluting ground water.Damn mother nature full speed ahead.We wiped out the dodo the passenger pigeon and we almost wiped out the bison. You can only abuse a mother for so long before she strikes back. The terrible tragedy we've just seen in Oklahoma will end up becoming the norm. Droughts and floods will be constant as mother nature redistributes all the new water from the melting ice caps. Some wacky preacher or pandering politician is sure to announce that all the death and destruction is because we are so godless. The real reason is man just can't help being the ultimate destroyer.
