Suburban Chimp - Finance & Social Commentary

Think about a sponge, you know, one of those creatures yanked out of the sea so you can wash yourself with, forget flannels, sponges are the way to go… anyway, think of a ‘sponge’ and if you are able, imaging how it can soak up water, and then some. It soaks up a load of water and then it’s full and can’t hold any more water. Then what happens? Water spills everywhere and there’s a mess to clean up.

The world is like a sponge, we pour a load of stuff into it and it’s filling up faster than we can squeeze it out again. This is a simple analogy for stupid people who believe that the issue of ‘climate change’ is make believe, made up like elves.

Whilst we busily filling the world up with bad stuff, (lets keep it simple), we’re also filling up the world with people. From what I’ve read- too many people. I could quote sources, but you can type ‘over population’ or ‘population growth’ into a search engine and find it for yourself. I’m not a journalist, or anything else, so I don’t feel I need to back up my opinion with any solid facts whatsoever, because I know the facts are there.

Let us recap:

The world is like a sponge and it is being filled up to saturation point. This is called ‘global warming’, ‘climate change’ or ‘make believe’ depending how you see things.

The world is full of people and there are going to be a whole bunch more of them by the year 2050.

The reason this is spelled out simply is because there is a whole bunch of people out there who do not believe these ‘facts’ are true.

Anyway, although I am passionately interested in the environment and social issues, any of this stuff I’m banging on about, frankly doesn’t matter for me because by 2050 I’ll be more than likely dead. I’m not having children, I have no brothers or sisters to worry about, I don’t really have many ties at all, apart from my wife who will be as aged as me by then, so really saving the world provides me with no actual benefit at all, and in millions of years time the world will be consumed by the sun anyhow, so maybe none of us should care less…

With those thoughts in mind, all those parents out there, make sure you all buy a Chelsea Tractor, show your kids what they look like while the is still enough oil to fuel them… say to them, look (insert name), this is what helped kill our planet, so when you’re choking to death from fumes and climate change, in middle age, you can blame good old dad for his devotion to pollutant vehicles and excess consumerism.
