how we got here?

Ever wonder how we got into this mess? Ya know, wars, oil disasters, whirlpool economics, over-population, consumption happiness, well you get my gist. I do. Sometimes I think that it's because I have a habit of wading into it, this mess. I decided several years ago to become a photographer of the mess; thinking by illustrating it I could help make sense of it, and maybe, just maybe, shift the path.

It's hard to explain - how we got here - even harder to illustrate. A few folks at the Post Carbon Institute with the help of a white board and a magic marker (this kind of thing takes magic) thought they would give it a try, and a hope. I think it's worth 300 seconds of your life - to consider your life on Earth - for all life Earth.
