Last night I watched Bill Maher’s show. Other than the ‘out there’ HBO license for language I find his take on things incisive and he brings a necessary attention to much we might otherwise be complacent about. One of the panelists quite succinctly said that until we get over our addiction to oil and gas the drilling and risk will go on. Another panelist opined that the answer to our energy concerns was not going to be found down any hole – but by looking up to the sun and the wind.

From the perspective of holism, what we do for ourselves we do for all. We cannot point any fingers or place blame until we look to ourselves to see how we support the very activity we love to hate.

Here is a great article that I received today. Timely message. Check it out!

I won’t have a backyard in my new home – but I will be in walking distance to most all that I need. I’m looking forward to that.

It is the many small acts that each of us can do with ease and simplicity – once we are conscious – that add up to a solution.  Can you or I stop the leak?  No, but we can curb the demand by reducing the use of fossil fuels and force change by demanding alternative energy sources.  Think about what you can do today.

Cheers!
