Save The World or End The World

[loren]

I can't live up to the standards of being a hero so I'm pulling the plug. Laters...

Save the world - I say, shit, let it burn.

[Molly D'Vyne]

I'd save the world just to enjoy the lulz acquired from being the one that saved the world. And then when that wasn't fun anymore, destroy it... but I'd want to do it from a good vantage point. Guess I should look into astronaut training.

[Stavros]

I guess it all depends on which world you live in, some after all, live in a world of their own..

"We had to destroy the village to save it."


I think the world is beyond salvation - but that shouldn't let us all stop trying.

there is only 1 way to save this world...anoint me king of the world such that i may end international disputes by destroying borders, merging sovereign wealth and debts and installing one global currency. furthermore i would dissolve all present governments, work to prevent nepotism and cronyism everywhere and have democratic elections for new 'local' leaders.

without the threat of war and currency/debt debate, the only problems that may exist are social tolerance of each other because the manufactured issues that sovereignty and nationalism create would be moot.

short of that, blow this bitch up.

.. and what about the huge environmental issues we face, king of the world?

.. and what about the huge environmental issues we face, king of the world?

the environmental issue we face is a secondary issue to the dearth in education.

i am a strong believer that PROPER education cures all...if we arm individuals with the correct information about the environment or any other issue (social or other) we can change perception. misinformation is the largest culprit about why things take so long to be addressed (if ever fixed).

beyond changing perception about the environmental issue, as king of the world, i'd mandate the end of the internal combustion engine in everyday use vehicles and support the use of electric cars. i'd mandate the use of clean nuclear power over coal and such...and with the globalization of the power grid and lack of political structures aimed at using nuclear power against other states, clean nuclear power for everyone. i'd mandate that despite nuclear power being widely used, that in any area feasible (i.e. 90% of the world) where geothermal, solar or wind power are viable, that 50% of the grid be fueled by those sources.

shit...if i were obama, knowing that i can't get re-elected, as a meager first step, i'd take the stance that any car sold in the US after 2020 (to give the manufacturers some time to innovate and implement) but at least be a hybrid, if not an electric car. by law...no more internal combustion engines getting drunk on foreign oil and emitting crap. it would be a hard sell on the public and congress and no doubt the auto makers would challenge it in court, but it is a step in the right direction.

I would claim my Tranny Awards outfit would prove I'm a hero, but the reality is...

I came here not to praise this world, but to bury it.
