What will it take?

It's cloudy today.  The weather forecast is calling for snow.  It's cold enough to snow, and if it does, we'll go out and shovel the driveway.  If it does, we'll 'fix it', so that we can continue to go on, right?

What would we do if we couldn't 'fix' it?  Conversations about protecting the environment have been going on around tables of all sizes and in all places across the globe for a long time now, but I wonder what it will take to make the subjects of such conversations move away from the realm of words.  Perhaps it takes the simple empassioned plea of a young child to reach the hearts of those who can make a difference.



Or maybe we'll just keep talking.
