David Suzuki Quote

• “We're in a giant car heading towards a brick wall and everyones arguing over where they're going to sit.” -David Suzuki. What do you think this quote means in terms of the environment and the future of the earth, and where would you sit in the "car"?

I think what David Suzuki meant by this quote was that the environmental situation on our planet is imminent, and instead of trying to work collectively to fix it, the earths populace is arguing over hw to fix it, and where everyone comes it.  In my opinion, the environmental crisis that exists is fueled by mankin, but has some natural elements to it as well.  There is no doubt that we must act environmentally sustainably, as to perserve life for all beings on EArth.  At the same time, however, we must spread our focus across many issues.  The looming environmental threat is a slow-moving process, instead of a war somewhere in the middle east.  The fact of the matter is that people are not going to be as interested in global warming, because they dont see the effects immediately.  I agree with David Suzuki, and if we do not start working towards fixing the problem we will start to see immediate effects that will hopefully cause a change in personal conduction.  I would hope to be in the backseat of the car, because I am not toally educated on the issue, and any contribution by myself would be based off sheer opinion.
