Do your part to destroy the Earth

By now, most of us have heard of peak oil, the concept that we’ve tapped the majority of the world’s oil reserves and are now on a downward trajectory.

As far as peak water goes, we ran out of clean water years ago, with five countries completely out of fresh, clean water. Saudi Arabia is one of them, and one of its leaders has recently said he wishes they had water instead of oil.


Trouble is, we Americans haven’t changed our ways much, knowing what we know. We haven’t signed the environmental accords like every other country on the planet. We aren’t about to act like good world citizens, conserving resources, using alterative energy sources and leading the way out of the mess we made.

So we need a new strategy. We need to just get it over with. We need to go full steam ahead and just deplete the oil, run out of water and watch our genetically engineered crops fail.
