Carbon Apocalypse: in carbon we trust

The public discourse on whether or not to go ahead and exploit the remaining carbon resources for a quick buck is what prompted me to put together these visual sentiments on the future of a society which has chosen carbon to provide its future energy security.

The ability to make a populace unable to decide if putting poison into their living space is harmful is a symptom of a dysfunctional democratic society. Its presence requires only blindly following leaders and experts. The leaders and experts have brought them to the point where a "carbon apocalypse" is inevitable. But we sing in unison "drill baby drill" like there's no tomorrow. 

A New York Times opinion article by James Hansen Published: May 9, 2012 reveals the waiting catastrophe. A vivid description of the expected calamity is found in an article by Rick Moran at American Thinker. com 

After shaking oneself free from the mind control exerted by experts and leaders it soon becomes obvious our leaders and thinkers have consistently proposed solutions that have made things worse than they were before. Does following their advice make sense anymore? Even without statistics for proof a person who has lived a lifetime knows how badly the leaders and experts have done. A person in control of his mind doesn't need someone to explain what has gone wrong.

I've made a series of prints on the theme of the impending debacle coming down on the people of the world due to the continued use of carbon based energy sources. These can be purchased at Zazzle.com. This future bearing down on us is too serious a matter to go unmentioned.

There is a department in my store for Environmental Art. As I contemplated the result of pouring poisons into the air, the water supply and the earth itself the following images presented themselves to me. Art From Another Dimension. The issues at stake involve the future of the earth as a place that is able to support human life.

An energy policy should not make people have to make that kind of choice. Some would argue that it is not actually something chosen but something shoved down their throats against their will. Whatever it is the fact remains that putting poison into the environment insures it will end up in the human body. This should be considered an unacceptable proposition. It almost seems absurd to have to point this out, but we have long since, as a society, lost track of the absolute reality of cause and effect. We appear to believe we can do anything and our actions will never have an effect we need to worry about. Below is a history of what happens when companies are allowed to use the process of 'fracking to extract carbon energy sources.

The prints are high resolution 600 psi. They are useful for poster size or mailing as postcards. Each reveals the sense of doom staring the earth and its inhabitants in the face. It is not a pretty picture but it's time to face the future and see if it can be changed. It seems like a reasonable activity to spend ones time engaged in.
