Environment and Sustainability

As living entities we are open systems to the environment. We must take inputs as air, food, and water and subsequently leave byproducts as carbon dioxide and other waste. The human culture is escalating a hedonistic calculus which is the benefit cost ratio. Any consideration of a sustainable equilibrium is disregarded for the obtainment of immediate pleasure.This culture is a poor support for using a "war by other means" approach as contaminating the environment to degrade the quality of life so a more convential war could not be fought. Also vulnerable at a lower level is sustainable economy. Polluting water supplies eliminates an element essential to all life. Our surface water supplies as drinking water are easily plumbered as is seen here in the Eastern High Sierras and the Colorado River Valley. Millions of persons depend on groundwater, lakes, rivers, and streams to drink and farm.

There is also the industrial consideration to be deliberated.If these rescources are contaminated there is no homeland security only a mockery of justice and tyranny.Any culture begins at the individual level. Yes it would be very difficult to discern who smoked the first cigarette and radiated the behavior. What is discernable is that there are sworn officials who are capacited to ensure that our environment is clean and safe.In the United States the environment front is a sham with the concrete living space the unequivocable truth. I believe in global warming spending much of my summers in the high desert where 100+ degree days are normative and increasing. None of the last four presidential administrations have produced any legitimate effort in the face of widespread environmental despolation.

President Bush and his three predecessors have to be legally taken to the task Alan Greenspan has written a book critical about economics and war. War for profit is piracy. The economic paradigm is part of Strategic Security but also reflects the moral degradation of economics over philosophy.Has any economist calculated the damage from manufactuirng polluted goods. Sellng such to the Chinese only begs retaliation. The damage to United States prestige and corporate history has collasped into a strongman maker--taker posture.We are poor stewards of our environment and the rights that protect our living space as well as ourselves.

We are bankrupting the future as an informant nation.The charlatan posturing of the 2008 Presidential Candidates only focuses and higlights the oligolopical collusion of a Perfect Dictator.
