I don’t necessarily buy into human-caused global warming, but some of these other things are real enough.

Many of us believe that life on this planet is in a lot of trouble.
***Just an emotive statement.

The climate is becoming unstable;
***Probably not

there are too many people;
***Of course. That would depend upon all of us ladder pullers who are already here...

oceans are dying,
***Very emotive statement, but some oceans are pretty polluted and there’s not enough fish living in them for a fishing fleet on one trip.

sea levels are rising;
***Baloney

and water, food, clean air, and minerals are coming into short supply.
***I agree with all that.

For many, the economy refuses to grow fast enough to maintain living standards.
***And agree with that.

and water, food, clean air, and minerals are coming into short supply.

For many, the economy refuses to grow fast enough to maintain living standards.

Clean water has been in short supply in Europe for a long time, not here. Food is in short supply but obesity is a leading health problem. I’m not buying the short food supply statement. Certain minerals; true enough but they were rare before we found commercial uses for them.
