‘philosophy’

Maybe i’m being paranoid, but something strikes me. I’m not normally someone who goes out looking for conspiracies or conspiracy theories, but it seems only too convenient if big businesses are going to cut budgets on “green” projects because of the credit crunch…
I think it’s a poor excuse. What use is money if the world suffers trillions in damages from the greenhouse effect? Of course the same executives would still sit on a sack of money. Even if the moon crashes into the earth they’ll still be rich. Why would they care? Really. They don’t have to.
Either that or i’m being paranoid.

It’s so simple. It came to me yesterday night when I was trying to fall asleep. Like some eureka moment or “divine inspiration”. It’s the text to an imaginary speech. Not that I regulary speak infront of large crowds, I do enjoy giving presentations though. Maybe I have a little bit of a showman in me. Basically it’s how I would sum up why we should live peacefully and take care of each other. Yeah I know, I too get tired of hearing how we have to save the planet all the damn time - but we know Earth knows very well how to save herself.
Anyway, I reasoned about the reason why us hoo-mans are alive. And it is simple. Compost. Yep. Now don’t scurry away pointing at me telling your friends “He’s probably one of them hippies, he is,” because i’m not. Let’s just compare ourselves to that other living material; flora. When a plant dies it falls to the ground where it serves a new purpose. That of food for other living things, other plants mostly. Humans are the same. Not only do we leave chemicals behind when our bodies decompose, but we have something else. Something only our superior brains can leave behind.
