Ford sponsoring Cities of Tomorrow is like letting a fox into a chicken coop with us the victims. Cars are THE problem. http://tinyurl.com/yatruyjb

To what evil do Denmark, China and Singapore march in lockstep to?

What is the worst thing among the zillions of terrible things that he does of which Trump should most repent?

What does “blindness to what is under our noses” mean when no one sees?

What do we think when we see the melting of Antarctica?

A car free world is a cornucopia of evolution because only design properly understood can save us now.

A car free world enables a rebuilding that could truly evolve us all.

A car free world would enable the creation of communities that move past outmoded zoning to integral inclusion of all elements of life.

A car free world will never be if Elon Musk, Ford and Donald Trump have their way.

The above-named entities truly believe they can dance around warming by perpetuating the cookie cutter megalopolises that render all skylines a celebration of high-rises and highway interchanges.

Elon thinks he can defy faults by burrowing under them.

Ford knows the way is hard but has no option but to blunder through — short term profit being the only goal remotely feasible.

Trump is about to be iced by Grand Juries and impeachment threats, but his big oil world will continue to dazzle the eyes of everyone from Axios to the planning centers of the world to TED Talks to everywhere else with clout or the desire for same. The entire world staggers in ignorance.

Things remain unchanged. None heed. These are the corollaries of blindness.

Hell is an endless parking lot.

Death by collision, anomie, acedia, fumes, heat and untended things in the air will increase.

Truth is so simple. The cost is to what is. No one will pay it. Faith nearly died a while ago. But truth is deathless.
