Don't stare my friend, everything is in its own time🙂
Jimmy Carter lived over 100 years (I don't even believe you about your 137 years 😀)...
If we look at it that way, you are 100% right. But if we think about the ecology and the planet Earth that remains after us (we, the people who care about the planet), it's fucked up.
I know that I probably won't experience the apocalypse on the planet that we have been destroying as much as possible for the last 70 years (just like you), but future generations will be screwed...
Yeah, future human generations are totally fucked...I don't think my solar panels are the issue though...take a look at countries like Chine and India/Bangladesh and the others, plus the corporations who promote and feed consumerism, commercial fishing, poor land management, overuse of resources, deforestation...all fucking up the environment way more than my solar panels will. I think it'll be good when the planet is so fucked it won't support human life...it'll mean the end of humans and the beginning of the planet's recovery.
I wasn't even thinking about the dozens of solar panels that you installed on your buildings, but exactly as you stated, about the large industries of the world 🙂
You shared a link with the documentary "Buy now", everything explained where we are going due to the interests of the industry.
We (people on the planet) don't need much, but under the pressure of marketing and creating the feeling that we need more than we really do, people give in...
Yep, we're moving in the wrong (and downward) direction. Sad for sure, but true.
