Rolling Disasters

It is now obvious to anyone with his or her own brainstem that climate change is on top of us and that climate change is an unending set of rolling disasters. 

California State Senator Mike McGuire and others are attempting to block the shipping by rail of vast bins of coal through Northern California. The coal would then be sold to China, who would burn it and make our life on this planet worse. 

Stopping coal is exactly what is needed. We must stop producing and selling fossil fuels. Few politicians are willing to take this problem on, because there is money to made by the Amerindians on whose reservation the coal will be dug, money to be made by the railroads, money to be made selling coal to China, etc. Money, money, money. For money many humans will sell bullets to their own firing squad. 

Remember McGuire. He and some others are trying to deal realistically with the awkward reality of global warming.
