"Most of our populace and all of our leaders are 
participating in a mass hallucinatory fantasy in
which the megatons of waste we dump in our rivers 
and bays are not poisoning the water, the hydrocarbons
we pump into the air are not changing the climate,
overfishing is not depleting the oceans, fossil fuels will
never run out, wars that kill masses of civilians are an 
appropriate way to keep our hands on what's left, we
are not desperately overdrawn at the environmental bank
and really, the kids are all right."
Excerpt from Barbara Kingsolver
"The Good Farmer"
