My heart aches and I have been grieving deeply all the preventable suffering, death, and destruction that is occurring today in our nation and around the world that is connected to the human impact on our warming Earth. My deep and persistent prayer is that humankind will evolve and awaken and act out of a higher good. Our ignorance places life on Earth in peril. Our awakening offers us the possibility of healing and transformation. May we individually and collectively be brave and care enough to dig deeply into the roots of the planetary crises that threaten us all. Knowing the problem is half the solution. — Molly
We’ve
arranged a society based on science and technology, in which nobody
understands anything about science and technology. And this combustible
mixture of ignorance and power, sooner or later, is going to blow up in
our faces. Who is running the science and technology in a democracy if
the people don’t know anything about it?
