<DIV><FONT size=4>Donovan and I agree on at least some fundamental
outlooks.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>1. There is a limited amount of
terrestrial/atmospheric resources. There are and will be too many people
competing for these resources. Further, overuse of some of these resources
creates life/quality of life threatening environmental problems for all plants
and animals including humankind. Think about this: What would happen
if at least half of the world's human population lived at the same standard of
resource usage as the US and western Europe?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>2. Petroleum resources are not only quite
limited, but their uses are a leading cause of many life/quality of life
threatening problems. Hence, a very high tax on such products may help
motivate a search for much better, kinder to the earth, plants and animals
(including humankind) alternatives, and also decrease their usage and the
associated problems.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=4>However, I also think the pessimistic outlook of Nils that we
lack the political will to do what needs to be done before it is too late is
also accurate.</FONT></DIV>
