Remember the warm glow of the yellow/orange street lights? There gone now too, just like the hummingbirds and the fireflies.
Why did you have to shatter the small bit of perceived relief I had!!??
Thought you might want to know. Information is power.
100%. It is always better to know. I think that's what draws us all to this place.
At the same time, fuuuuuck man. 😔
I think capitalism is humanities terminal illness.
So much potential wasted.
This was the era of robber barons, not long after this the US actually did something about these people, including some of the best progressive tax rates the US probably ever saw.
For example in 1951 if you had an income of $400,000, every dollar you made beyond that was taxed at 91%. That doesn't necessarily mean they paid that much, but they paid a lot more than they do nowadays.
Maybe 30 years after our first trillionaire will get our s*** together again, or maybe not.
"Now I know!"
"And knowing is half the battle!"
I saw fireflies on the 4th, I even managed to pick one up.and we've got humming birds in our backyard. Humming birds and firefly's are gone?
Insecticides were hard on them in some areas. Same reason I remeber always having a ton of squished bugs all over the windshield and radiator growing up, but cars stay much cleaner now.
Some populations are rebounding though, Saw tlmy first Monarch butterfly in 15 years the other day
True they are. Some of the monarch habitats are threatened, the one in Santa Barbara/Goleta has greatly been reduced over the years.
I too remember great bug swarms growing up in a desert area. Caterpillars covering the road making popping noises as you drove over them. And I hadn't thought of bugs on cars in a long time so you do make a good point.
