1. I too hope we do not put ourselves into complacency. However, it seems we never worry about

things until it is too late. Think about Global Warming & how the right politicizes it, no regard for the truth, just their politics. The glacier ice melting; of course, part of global warming. Yet we still cut down trees in the rain forest & you mention the "dwindling Ogallala Aquifer". Right-wing KS still thinks they can drain it for irrigation with no catastrophic results.

I personally wonder how those who continue to farm these lands with no regard for the future, disregard all of the scientific knowledge about global warming can care for their children or grandchildren. I want the future generations to be able to enjoy this earth as those before them have been able to do. I believe the animals on this earth have the right to have their natural habitats & be able to live as they should. It can all be done.

I too fear of a coming dust bowl, it will occur sometime in the future unless some things change.
