Panicked about all the apocalyptic climate news. My family and I spend the vast majority of our time outdoors. It is our church. I have animals that have to live outdoors. I think we are going to have shortened life spans, along with our kids

as the drought worsens out west in this country and people on marginal land worldwide go on the move in search of something, anything to eat.

However, in the beginning, it looks to be a slow motion apocalypse if we can keep fingers off the various buttons.

with explosions, violence, apocalypse. From Cormac McCarthy's The Road to The Avengers, to CSI. I wonder if we've put out so much negative violent energy into the universe, that we've set a path to our own destiny. It's like setting your intention. This is the intention our culture has set. It remains to be seen when and how much materializes.

usually on Fri after Bill Baher on my cable menu. It does amazing reporting around the globe. Last week they did a fascinating program on cancer. This week it was the ice melt in the antarctic. They were off for many months, filming new shows. Last year they did programs you do not see anywhere else. I have been really appreciative of their work. Subjects are different each week, so there may be weeks that do not hit a cord with you, or me, smile. But usually I am completely drawn in to the show. Give it a try. This one on the ice melt is really serious for all of us. The program is on HBO so I know not everyone will have access to it. My condo assoc recently got a new cable package and HBO was included so now I can see it. Try!

Give it a few weeks to catch it. It was quite well done. They did a lot of gruntwork to put it together.

I just checked. If you want to see that program re the melting ice in the antarctic -- go to YouTube (free) and type in VICE on the top place where you can ask for what you want. Then when the VICE menu comes up select Our Rising Oceans. You got it!
