Yes. And to that I would add the enormous, far-reaching, ongoing moral crisis of refusing to see the writingon the wall about what the scientists are telling us we are doing to the earth’s ability to sustain us. It doesn’t matter what our “OPINION” is, it is the ecosystem. It doesn’t care about our politics (except about that part which simply tips the scales of eco-balance away from that which had been in process for many thousands of years). All of our rationalizations about how we have to use fossil fuels to “keep our economy going” is , in the end, nonsense. For without a sustainable ecosystem – sustainable for humans and many other species – there will be NO economy. How’s that as a “moral crisis”?
