Percentage wise I'm a minority. I don't think like most people. I see and think things that others don't. For example. What do we do when our bridges and multiple lane highways need to be replaced because the concrete and steel is stuffed? Where's all the vehicles going to go when in 100 years time they need to be demolished and rebuilt? Add high rise buildings sewer and water systems and the list goes on 
Nothing lasts forever! The more you look the more you see. Unsustainable choices in practice. Making problems for Future generations to have to solve and mess to clean up. I came up with a new word yesterday Envirophile ! 
It seemed rather befitting for the times we're living in. 
The easiest mess you'll ever clean up
Is the one you don't make....... I say it to every apprentice and then watch them drop shit on the floor!!! 
Do we need, more so now. Than ever before in the history of our species To make long time decisions looking A few hundred years ahead and planning for what we're giving (not leaving) for our Forecestors to live with. They don't have any control over our selfish actions and doings. We build museums and store the past with such care and conviction, charging people to see it.(Big yellow Taxi) And yet the responsibility for preserving the future for people who well never meet! It would appear isn't as important of a task.
