I am seeing a lot of shame blaming articles today on the insensitivity of people, like me, who are identifying the horrific fires and evacuations, destruction of massive forest and no doubt precious animal life as well, as karmic blowback for the greed and disrespect for nature in Fort McMurray, Alberta that led to this disaster. Facts are facts for one-it does not show a lack of empathy - and it is a WARNING for other areas where greed and a disrespect for the natural environment continues-this is not some isolated tragedy-and moreover the greenhouse umbrella of catastrophic climate change due to manmade pollution for decades. As I said when I began this blog, we are what we create and this environmental crisis is a crisis of consciousness, an identity crisis-the result of the brutality of greed instead of balance and the brutality of nature as OTHER.
