I think they will let it burn because they are incapable of fixing it. We trained them to be this way, and while people do have the power to overcome adversity, I'm not sure they have the power to overcome schooling.

I think of where we might be if we had listened to Jimmy Carter & started seriously working toward alternative energy back then. A squandered opportunity. Americans didn't want to be told to turn back their thermostats & wear sweaters in their houses, I guess, cuz I know a ton of people who were democrats & voted for Reagan.

I don't have contact with many people, especially young ones, but I don't see the activism & work for change that the other poster claims. Not in any generation. Personally, I think we're toast & as a collective we know it, so we're just going to party like it's 1999 as we go into the dustbin of history.
