How can "one" repent when ones attention deficit focus is selfishly focussed on the here and now of 'ME' instead of the future of ONES family,including ONES children and GRANDCHILDREN and their life legacy!
It's as if the REAL peripheral vision of the majority of us humans has been voluntarily sacrificed FOR THE FALSELY pleasant fantasy tunnel-vision of the NOW!
It's the 'I'm alright now Jack'syndrome,and HANG the future coz I'll be dead by then!
SHAME ON US!Because if we DO NOTHING now,we sentence our children to doom and gloom TOO. How MUCH do we love,and value them?
If we are "addicted" to oil and all it's sub-products,we OBVIOUSLY haven't got the balls to tell our 'drug dealer'(Exxon,B.P et al) to stop FEEDING our UNHEALTHY addiction.
It's cheaper and easier,in the NOW, to sell ONES soul to the devil! LOL!

It seems impossible for this society to repent. Repent means stop doing wrongful things. We must stop polluting. Harming our habitat our planet is wrong. Is it possible for this society who is hooked on petroleum, to stop using it. We are destroying ourselves. Changing the air we breathe into poisonous gas`s. How many chemicals are released into the atmosphere from asphalt shingles, asphalt roads,
We are smothering the earth. How can one in this society repent?

I think the world is going to change the U.S. policy on climate change!

Exon is doing that

The United States is the only major country that hasn't signed the Kyoto Protocol - and consumes 26 percent of the world's energy. But politicians still talk of proactive approaches towards countering global warming. Can the U.S. alter world policy on climate change?
