What is SAD to the MAX is that in destroying the planet we are SLOWLY destroying ourselves. Every gasoline golf cart that goes by (some speeding) driven by a smiling, happy individual...........probably has NO IDEA about how their own contribution is negatively affecting humanity and the Earth. Maybe after the next 10 years of increasing Heat and killer HURRICANES, the people in The Villages will finally EQUATE their CO2 emitting vehicles to the SLOW death of the Earth. Coal burning in China does NOT help also. Many Scientist believe that in 10 years we will reach a "TIPPING POINT" from which we can't recover. Why are so many (and so many older Villagers) willing to take that chance??????????
