God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference

It is apparent that Mr. Gilding has not grasped this concept, and it is apparent he was not able to make the change that he felt was needed. I would say that from reading about this gentleman, he did not make it to the table where he could possibly have made a difference. What is needed is a strategy much like MADD, where inroads made were small but lasting. There was not a continued confrontation, but a coordinated effort, primarily by women, to have the system changed. Mr. Gilding wants to effect change, he has to pick away at specific issues, the "earth" is too big a concept.

I agree that we have been on a rampage that has contributed to whatever is happening to our planet, but we are not the main culprit. Our time on earth is but a nano second on the timeline.

What is the general populace willing to do without to assist Mr. Gilding, I submit not much if anything at all.

Just MHO. Cheers
