By Keith Suter, published 25/1/2018

Will humankind end by apathy and inertia? The warning signs of major problems are there - but many people are simply ignoring them.

Reading his eminence Suter's self-written OLO author description http://www.onlineopinion.com.au/author.asp?id=185 :

"Dr Keith Suter is a futurist, thought leader and media personality in the areas of social policy and foreign affairs. He is a prolific and well-respected writer and social commentator appearing on radio and television most weeks."

I'm not so conceited.

Never heard of Ronald Higgins, but he sounds like the pessimist, Paul Erlich. Everyday since the latter stopped gabbling, all his doom and gloom is exposed as bullshite. Who cares about population growth, anyway? The growth is with stone-agers who can't feed themselves – the West just has to stop feeding them – problem solved. How stupid can we get, aiding people to breed and overpopulate. That's globalism for you.

The process of recovery could be started with the cessation of funds to meddling NGOs.

T.S. Eliot “warned” did he. I'll tell you about the only warning we need listen to from T.S. Eliot – the one where he wrote that progressive liberals will lead us to totalitarianism, as they march from what they want to leave behind to absolutely nothing.

Awakening a global conscience is usually code for having a seared personal conscience. Sort of like husbands who refuse to be faithful to wives and father their kids. sort of like the putried feminist vagina heads pretend to be moral agents, sort of like the gw high priests who have been proven wrong on almost all predictions but have made millions/billions from their lies. Its personal conscience breakdown causing destruction not some pseudo political global conscience which is usually some socialist pushing marxism.

First, they took away our heritage and traditions, then our land, our marriage, and now they want to dissolve our borders and cancel the national day. Well, excuse me if a bit sceptical, lol

Clearly and without question there are solutions and we could implement them, but for the seventh enemy already in our midst!

Those enemies are those folk implacably opposed, who act in deliterous ways to prevent the, as plain as the nose on our face, solutions being applied!

I mean our mob called for a report into thorium, written by an expert in non thorium energy.

And you guessed it, because thorium harms the business model of nuclear fuel fabrication, the reports these alleged experts produce are hardly ever glowing reports.

But rather ones, that from where I sit, having read the scant report, over emphasise a couple of very minor technical easily solved difficulties.

Thorium promises everything fusion promised but couldn't deliver and now quite deliberately suppressed by the seventh enemy!?

Ultra cheap power being a critical part of any solution! The other being affordable water. As promised by deionisation dialysis desalination.

Already proven to be a viable means of bringing affordable water to thirsty crops. And made vastly more affordable with walk away safe, molten salt thorium.

We teeter on the brink of an extinction event or Armageddon. Yet the recalcitrant, intransigent, seventh enemy refuse to do more, than spend vastly more on weapons, some of them weapons of mass destruction!

A global conscience may be awakening? But unless it includes our alleged leaders, all of them, it's worthless!

Hanrahan was indeed correct.
Homo Sapiens has evolved well and truly past the limits of his intelligence.
Not only shall we breed ourselves out of house and home but what sensible species would deliberately destroy their own life support system for their own greed and gratification.
