I don’t disagree with your ideals. My many years on this earth has shown me that human nature (eg lust for power, wealth and control)has existed since we first walked upright. That won’t change now or in the future. We can hope technology provides a way to deal with the problems that 7+ billion people living together pose, or we will perish as most species eventually do.
Well those ideals are great but anyone who knows anything about basic manufacturing processes can tell you that none of this is going to be able to become a reality in our time. The fact is 7 billion people is too many for our ecosystem (ie the Earth) no matter how we live. We follow the same natural laws as all species…Eventually we’ll reach a point where the population boom will no longer be sustainable for our own survivable and the world population will begin to decline, eventually (as in thousands of years from now) stabilize at a sustainable level, and that new population will live comfortably.
AllYou Say is Wisdom and common sense,but people are still afraid to mention the Taboo subject,THERE ARE JUST TOO MANY DAMN PEOPLE FOR THE EARTH TO SUPPORT with it’s finite rescources
These pictures could explain to people how idiotic they are. We need to love our Earth and in doing so we’d be able to get the love back, but instead our consuming, retarded economy can’t see how obvious all the solutions are. Fractals, which occur everywhere in nature, could be the key to enhancing life…these are just my crazy thoughts…
I wish i knew a way for all the good eggs to live on the moon and get a new life going. One based on love and happiness. We’re all in this together. Why not find a way out together?
I love the cartoon. I enjoyed the ideas, which are more or less common sense but so little can put those in this way. The representation, I believe, is what makes them effective.
Nice comic. That you drew on your computer, using electricity in your home, which is built of the wood, after work which you drive to in your car. Your comic is trying to inspire people to change, your not going to change the world and the convenience that all these things supply us with a comic. And maybe if your serious about all this then start with yourself. Pzz kid.
Humans only think about themselves, and dont have concept of time. The earth will be here far longer that we will be. If you want to do something for the environment that will actually work, invent something that does the same thing with less ecological impact. Humans in their selfish manner will not sacrifice convenience for less impact. They dont care about impact, but they do care that it does the job or serves its purpose easier or more efficiently than the model before it did. Comics are not the way to a better environment. Stop bitching and start actually doing something about it if you truly care. That goes for all of you. Until that happens every single one of you is a hypocrite.
And recombina, you cant live on the moon, for a million different reasons. And who are you to decide who is and who is not a good egg? What gives you that power? fact of the matter is, you people are all right. Scientific evidence from glaciers and ice packs has uncovered a history of greenhouse gas spikes (mostly carbon) are always followed by an ice age. Currently they are higher than they have ever been, so the storm is coming, its just a matter of time. Meaning its too late to do anything. But survive through the ice age and when things turn around, to try and use the technology currently being researched to start over again. And Maria and willy are right, theres simply to many people on this planet for it to naturally support life. Technologies such as fusion, high atmosphere wind turbines, hadron particle collider, NASA’s puffin personal transport, and trying to not be complacent with the technologies such as trying not to get stuck in this gas/electric hyprid rut and getting to full electric asap. Im not telling you to not try and help the environment, just dont be dumb about it. use your head about the environment and actually do some research before you say something stupid like our planet feels love. It doesnt. Love is a word attached to a human emotion. Our planet doesnt feel anything. Iron doesnt feel anything. Im sure there is alot you can do for the environment, but sitting on your computer reading comics is not one of them. Please feel free to comment back, i hope it doesnt look like im looking down on you all, thats not the intention.
Your cartoons are wonderful! I am a 63 year old from the MONKEY WRENCH GANG era of getting things changed. Of course, NOW one would be in GITMO real quick for even advocating such behaviour! Keep it up, there are those of us who really enjoy your work.
Funny how negative comments attach themselves to healthy posts like ticks or leeches do. Keep on doing what you’re doing, Stuart. A lot of people have trouble with the truth and with reality, but they still need to hear and see it. You do that in a gentle and thoughtful way. I think this cartoon should be on the desk of every CEO in the world.
Amazing. You pretty much summed up the movement I want to contribute to when I graduate college and enter the workforce as a chemist (and much more eloquently.) Don’t let haters get you down!
thats great but the fact is there is just far too many people on the planet to be sustained. we can only cushion the blow, this planet is going to crash. fasten your seat belts and hope you dont hit an SUV
You should know that the “Story of Stuff” is factually inaccurate and has been debunked by people like Lee Doren.
Also, any idiot with an economics degree could tell you that scarcity (as you are proposing) is an impossibility due to rationing and natural equilibrium.
[...] too much about it right now, but the project will be social/environmental commentary in the vein of Part of Nature from last year. Hopefully a interesting side-project for us both to work on between our other [...]

That’s supposed to say for our own survival*. My bad.

Great! I enjoyed your creative cartoon very much. There is no such place as AWAY… One of my favorite truths…
Maybe a resource based economy would show to be a valid solution, http://vimeo.com/user2234363
This is excellence! Like, I can’t descibe it in words. I express my feel ing to the artist wordlessly, in spaztic excitement.

Check out the Zeitgeist Movement! freedocumentaries.com
Zeitgeist.
Addresses the ills we have created, and poses some solutions.
Amazing. You pretty much summed up the movement I want to contribute to when I graduate college and enter the workforce as a chemist (and much more eloquently.) Don’t let haters get you down!
I love this!
Thank you!
Is it possible to provide a printable version of this comic? I’m not too tech savvy but would like to post it at work.
Thanks
