Climate Change caused by Cows, Fossil Fuels and Corporatism's Global pollution

Perpetual Religious Cultural war with Bush/Cheney induced ISIS

A Military Industrial Complex funded by Corporatism with the blood of American citizens of every hue and background

ISIS has no monopoly on Religious Zealots. Every day, America bleeds from fearful white zealots fighting for the past and money hungry Wall Street zealots fighting to leave us behind, in the future.

Our Enemy is war, greed and, like Grenada, unjustified invasion. Our weakness is in becoming Guantanamo instead of reflecting the Gettysburg Address.

Our Middle East enemy is the self-serving deal of Shell Oil. Our environmental threat is an Exxon that knew, and for decades, threw us between them and melting glaciers.

History has proven that when We Built That CEOs convince our American lawmakers to convince those who bother to vote, to vote against themselves, we accrue ever increasing damage from Empire Building Conservative implementations of foreign leaders, policies, and domestic gun violence, all while failing to preserve the human necessities of clean water, safe food and long range consideration for planet earth and all living upon it.

If we want the Paris Climate Accord to be an all-inclusive reality -- if only one window box at a time -- we best start planting rooftop gardens, backyard trees and wind turbines on the plains -- because there is no automatic Climate Justice in evolving Climate Change.

We need be more like San Bernardino's Shannon Johnson, and wrap our arms around our melting rainbow pot, with I Got You and Yes We Can, before life as we know it, is Poe's Nevermore.

As Greek-American Louie Psihoyos suggests: Startwith1Thing
