  We, the people, all have some responsibility for the massive negative Climate Change cloud under which our planet, Earth, is, along with us, threatened.  To different degrees, us and the primary de-spoilers of our living environment, are the beneficiaries of what has been produced.  Much, if not all of it has been done in our name. From the toxic and cancerous effluent forming a part of the process of extracting the raw materials to build our gleaming electronic and computerised products.   To the 'consumer-friendly' plastics in which muc of our eco-system is currently suffocating.  We have a responsibility to help to make good the damage. It is not and should not be about simply pointing the finger at the primary producers whose processes are blighting the health of both planet Earth and its inhabitants. With responsibility comes the obligation of everybody to perform their role in effecting the transformation of Planet Earth back to a state of good health.  Consumerism has

  The most ardent and uncompromising advocate and warriors seem to be telling us that we Must stop doing all the things which we are doing, which are to a greater or smaller extent, damaging our Planet and imperilling our very existence.  And that we Must stop these activities Now. But how can humans stop most or all of these activities; Now?  When many of these activities are things we have been doing for decades or hundreds of years?  When some of them took generations to be put into place and improved over time?  Can a ship which began a journey across the ocean, using coal  for fuel, change to a new source of fuel in mid-ocean, without first stopping at an appropriate port to convert, if it can, its fuel source? And so it is with our response to the Climate Change Challenge.  That people, us, will not simply drop what we are doing and wait for better alternatives to be invented and developed.  If the call for change continues to out-pace the human capacity to make the change, it wi

A Very Big Congratulations to Max Verstappen, Sergio Perez and Team Red Bull for winning and coming Third in the 2021 Formula 1 Mexican Grand Prix, and to Lewis Hamilton and Team Mercedes for making it to a much deserved P.2 on Sunday 7th November 2021. And a Very Big Thank You to all the racers who participated in the race and contributed towards the entertainment. In what was a very exciting race, probably one of the most thrilling aspect was whether or not Hamilton would be able to maintain his lead over the raging Red Bull of Sergio Perez.   Whose Team delegated task it was to chase down the 7 times Formula 1 World Champion, not for the last one or two laps, but for over 10 laps.  With the faster pace of the raging Red Bull, this was no easy challenge for the Mighty Hamilton and his inferior Car 44, as Max stayed out of Hamilton's sight in the lead, and the giant shadow of Perez' car threatened to consume and overtake Car 44. But it was not to be; not on this occasion, as H

  But on the whole, many of some of us are also jealous of rich people. Some of us are resentful towards rich people; some of us see rich people as 'the enemies of the people.'  And some of us aspire towards becoming rich like rich people, while others are just indifferent towards rich people. None of this is really surprising, as it is also the case that rich people, as a category, have the means, wealth or money, to acquire political power and influence governments into ensuring their, rich people's interests, to be legitimised and protected.  Which raises the questions about what might be considered to be some of the problems some rich people have. Problems about the legal land moral legitimacy of their wealth.  Dealing with the moral dilemmas such as the fact that, with them accounting for such a large percentage of the Earth's wealth or cake, they are necessarily depriving the majority of the human species of their share or a part of it.  A realisation which could

    So, are there really any problems with some or all rich people, and if so, what are they and whose problems are they?  Of course the answer is likely to be, 'yes'. After all, there are some problems with all of us; so why would that not also apply to rich people?  What might be different, is what 'rich people see as their problems', and what the rest of us, looking in on them, perceive as 'the problems with them.'  Some of these problems will not be common to all 'rich people', sometimes depending on their amount of wealth and how it is accumulated or redistributed.  Some, however, will be common, such as what might be called 'stereotypical perceptions of rich people.' Many poor or average people do not spend much of their lives pondering the problems of rich people.  They have not got the time to do so, as they are too busy finding or maintaining ways of making their own living and getting by.  Being on the outside looking in, many poor and

  A Very Big Congratulations to Valtteri Bottas and Lewis Hamilton and Team Mercedes, for their unexpected P.1 and P. 2 positions, and to Max Verstappen and Team Red Bull, for making up the triumvrate  during the Qualifying session of today's Grand Prix in Mexico. There is not alot one can, reasonably say, but to flick ones head and ask, 'what just happened there, and who'?  Yes, how did Bottas and Hamilton and Team Mercedes came from apparently loosing out in Qualifying to becoming victorious in Qualifying?  Was it something Team Mercedes and Bottas and Hamilton did in Q3?  Did they cast a powerful spell on the Mighty Red Bull and their equally mighty Gladiators, Max The Mighty, and Perez The Man?  Or did the gods gave them, Mercedes and Bottas and Hamilton, the nod?   Probably because of some as yet unidentified offence that a member of Team Red Bull had committed, or have thought, deliberately or unintentionally, of committing against the gods.  That we might never know,
