and it reminded me of my friend's status message a few weeks ago...maybe the Philippines (or some of its cities) will be the new Atlantis.
the destruction caused by the recent typhoons shows that:
1. the environment is something people should take seriously. when i was a kid, i wanted to be some kind of environmentalist. and its because i love animals. but somewhere along the way, a part of me died and i just stopped caring.
2. the victims of the typhoons dont really deserve it but unfortunately, those who caused the damage to mother nature dont feel any guilt or remorse. so we wont be expecting any change of attitude from these people. and someone has to act and hopefully, those who felt the inconvenience, the slightly passive members of the population, should do something because they saw mother nature's not so good side when it wasnt their fault in the first place. they should act to make the people who should be responsible for pissing off mother nature do something that would improve the environmental situation.
im not sure if im just really, really bored but im really curious and interested to see what will happen in the next few years. i doubt people will start taking global warming seriously. if this global warming is as serious as it is being reported, i think a scenario similar to The Day After Tomorrow will happen. i dont mean an ice age will suddenly happen. i mean things will happen sooner and more serious than what was thought to be expected in our lifetime. if thats the case, i think i would like to stick around and live long enough and see how mother nature would try to assert itself and send its message loud and clear to its destructive inhabitants.
