Nature's Not Our Enemy, It's

It Was Long Ago In My Life As A Simple Reporter That I Decided That Facts Must Never Get In The Way Of Truth.

Rose: But Now You Know There Was A Man Named Jack Dawson And That He Saved Me... In Every Way That A Person Can Be Saved

There Is A Hugely Underserved Population Out There... Those Who Are The Least Capable Of Paying Pay The Highest.

You Can Have A Strong Economy Or You Can Help The Environment, But You Can't Do Both At The Same Time. That's Ridiculous. In Fact, As A Sustainable Vision For A Healthy Economy Has To Involve Changing Our Energy Policy And Changing With Respect To The Natural World. Because We're Hitting Nature's Thresholds, We're Hitting Nature's Limits With Respect To Water And Crop Yields And Energy Use And Fossil Fuels Heating The Atmosphere At The Same Time We're Past Global Peak And Running Out Of That.

So My Message Is In Whichever Realm, Be It Going Into Space Or Going Into The Deep Sea, You Have To Balance The Yin And Yang Of Caution And Boldness, Risk Aversion And Risk Taking, Fear And Fearlessness. No Great Accomplishment Takes Place, Whether It Be A Movie Or A Deep Ocean Expedition, Or A Space Mission, Without A Kind Of Dynamic Equipoise Between The Two. Luck Is Not A Factor. Hope Is Not A Strategy. Fear Is Not An Option.
