Time is short!

Time is short!

Greetings,

Relatively new to this site, so I thought I’d share my two cents worth with my fellow Lonely Hearts.
Before I start, I thought I’d make a confession:
The first lady I was hoping to get to know, didn’t even take the bother to write me a note to tell
me off. She has just ignored me. I was brief but polite. (Or maybe that was the problem.)
So, what? -You say. There are lots of other fish in the ocean. I know. I’ll get over her. It’s just that I’ve been good for so long now, didn’t bother a soul for years and here I am making my grand debut, the first step and… flat on my face, shot down in flames.
Do I know how to pick ‘em or what? Oh, well.
Okay, onto the title subject.
How many of you believe in Abrupt Climate Change? The key word is “Abrupt”.
Uhhhhh!
I can just see the eyes rolling. Well, I happen to believe in it. Am old enough - perhaps even wise enough - to see it happening right before my eyes. Not to mention all the videos, articles, scientific papers I have seen and read. ?I don’t think there is any doubt about it. The world’s climate is changing. It is getting warmer. Now, please, don’t start telling me how cool or cold it is where you are. Matters not. The earth’s temp - measured as average - has been going up. The CO2 levels, along with methane are at 20 million years ago levels. The arctic ice is disappearing. From about 16.5 million cubic kilometers down to 3.4 million cubic meters. Soon to be completely gone. Same for the south pole. Melting. We have set records every year since 2003. A temperature increase of just 3 degrees C above baseline (measured since 1750) is enough to wipe us out. We are already over 1.75 C!
The evidence is out there. (Aside from the paid trolls who are there to spread misinformation.)
Now, I am not about to present a scientific lecture here. I am only trying to bring attention to you - if you are happened to be the few who haven’t yet figured it out - to the short time we humans have left on this once so beautiful earth.
Time is short!
Perhaps shorter than we want to believe. To me, this is the most powerful motivating force now. This is what is guiding me. I adjust all my plans accordingly. It isn’t chasing the all-mighty dollar, it isn’t buying a fancy car or house.
It is however, finding the right companion. Someone who is like-minded. Someone, who is
informed and intelligent enough to see that there is no way out of this Sixth Extinction.
What is more important? Love and inner peace with someone, knowing and accepting that we are about to die or charging ahead blindly and finding out too late that perhaps you should have heeded the warning and that your priorities weren’t in order.

The question is “What if he is right?”

Thanks for tuning in, peace and love to all.
