The one sure-fire way to get rid of cancer is to die from it. Once the body has been possessed and devoured, it's enemy - those mutated ravenous cells - self-cancel as well. Cancer cells kill the very source from which it derives its sustenance, in effect sawing off the branch they sit upon.
Microcosm and macrocosm. Human beings are to Mother Earth what cancer cells are to the human body. As we multiply exponentially every day, invading deep pockets of global energy, the earth's body is slowly dying. In our ravenous desire for more, we eat away at the bounty of life.
Indigenous people of the Andes and other native cultures bear witness to the effects of their Mother's mistreatment at the hands of industrialized societies. They have warned us, but the power is not theirs to initiate radical behavior changes. Rogue citizens running the corporations of the world need to listen up.
We are the ones we've been waiting for. Mass movements of people must change their daily habits, or else the grandchildren of our grandchildren will be forced to live on a shrunken, uninhabitable planet.
Looking on the bright side, the movement towards organic agriculture and greener energy sources provide some hope, but it is the consumer who has demanded these changes. We can vote for better policies, but in the end what we buy creates pressure on Big Pharm, Big Farm and others to listen up.
Hello out there! We want to live! And we will prove it by where we spend our dollars, kopeks, shillings, euros, (yuans?) and other currencies washing around the globe.
