Just saw David Suzuki's film "Force of Nature". It's autobiographical and he made it for his 75th birthday, to say what he wanted to say before he dies. He says we bow before the percieved need for economic growth as we used to bow before dragons and demons - all three are figments of our imagination.
And the questions we don't ask in the way we live our lives are:
How much is enough?
Are there no limits?
How I wish I could reassure him that the world now understands what he has been saying all these years, and that we are fast moving along an alternative pathway that respects the air, the water, the soil, the sources of all life.
