I'm not really sure what shit to get together.

I mean, ok, sure, all the mitigation stuff that we should have been doing for ages. But based on the near-certainty that not enough of the world will get its act together fast enough, even if there were still time... Now what?

you already have your shit together. you're one of the very very few on my flist who's on the up and up.

as for now what? no clue. but, as I'm sure you already know, people need to be made aware of the consequences of their lifestyles before the shit hits the fan, so to speak. *shrugs* that's all I can think of.

Thanks. =) I'm pretty good at staring the data in the face and just Accepting when I run out of rational forms of "but it can't be". Unfortunately, that leaves me feeling very deer-in-headlights about the whole thing.
