Fuel Price hit the Ceilling



It is a matter of time before shit hits the fence when it comes to the issue of fuel shortages as there is a limit to how much man can keep sucking the ground dry of its oil contents. No doubt there is most probably some uncovered sources yet laying beneath the earth or the ocean surfaces but for the time being fuel prices are hitting the ceiling for one reason or another and the world population are feeling the pinch some more brutally than others. Gone are the days when man could live on firewood and bullock carts, bicycles and kerocene lamps for every other hom has to have at least one or two TVs, one or two cars one or two bad habits.

The care for our sustainable resources has taken a back sit among those who are out to rape and plunder the planet all in the name of development and progress. We neglect to address or at time totally deny the replete of our ozone layer causing climate changes making believe that the inevitable will not occur in our lifetime if not now perhaps in our children's lifetime and by them who cares we are dead and gone anyway. Nature is taking her toll and the climate in particular is changing slowly but surely towards less and less predictable occurances sometimes wrecking havoc unaticipated by humans whose homes and industries are ravaged and lives a re lost. It is a reality and it is here to stay and grow with us in time and in space. We can choose to ignore the signs and the warnings provided to us by higly qualified sources or we can stop and take account of our situation and find ways and means to rectify. Slow down, stop wasting, take bold steps to minimize and reduce what needs to be and can be reduced so that conservation spirit can take hold of our psyche. Look around us and decide to be involve in the care and and well being of the environment and stop being insensitive towards issues that may not involve us directly but matters in the long and collective term for the the planet as a whole.
We are not the only creatures that share this planet perhaps in thinking of others we can bring ourselves to slow down and stop the uncaring and wastage.
