A few days ago I was driving home in a borrowed car, worryingly low on gas; and listening to a radio news show discuss President-Elect Trump’s choice for Secretary of State: Exxon CEO, Rex Tillerman. The news reporters were commenting on the impending total destruction of the environment and subsequently the world as The United States of America is quickly heading towards becoming The United States of Crude Oil. One reporter commented, “The Trump Administration will set us back over 100 years in development as a country across the board.” I drove along thinking, “Dear God! What are we going to do about this?! How did we get here?! Where in the Hell is a gas station?!” …I will end this blog post right there.
