   Yes and no. We do need them for survival, but we shouldn't abuse the demeanor of killing a defenseless mammal, where we believe that it's a life or death situation. There are many evasive maneuvers where we could both live and move on with our merry lives. Like a tranquilizer gun, or throwing bait. I also know that along the line, maybe it'll perish by someone else, but at least the death isn't in my hands. I know that I did the right thing.

   I heard about that when my son joined scouts. I don't remember, do parents get to go? I want to go on that trip so fuckin bad, and I'm gonna encourage my son to go. He's a fuckin beast at camping, and loves every aspect of it, even the work part. He's gonna do great. Did you make it to Eagle Scout? I never got to join because my mom was too much of a lazy drunk whore to take me to any meetings let alone outings, let alone pay the five bucks a month or whatever it was back then.

   All very nice but that has nothing to do with the Earth. The Earth couldn't give a monkey's toss if bears or humans are on it.

   Actually it does give a monkey toss and hope it lands on the ground carefully. It's the calorific flow, that helps the sacred balance of our ecosystem. Our earth feeds on that, which is why it isn't flat.

   Exactly. Which is why there's an huge amount of dependency, that tolls upon us, to take of it. This is our home planet. This is not a fairy tale. We mustn't indulge Mickey Mouse mediocrity endeavors. We cannot put fate on our earth, wind, fire, water and heart rings to help summon Captain Planet anymore. He's not the hero. He had an affair with Space ghost. He cannot bring the pollution back down to zero. They got married as soon as they found out that LGBT rights bill was introduced back in the year 1975, when they address discrimination toward sexual orientation.

    No. It's like mixing rational thought with logic.

    This is our earth, we must take full responsibility of our own actions. We must recycle at all times. We mustn't litter. We must walk on the grass barefooted to gain the full benefit of our cosmic energies.

    We are all one with the universe. We must take care of our world, otherwise our future generation will suffer.

    Suffering is good, it builds character. Comfort encourages laziness.

    ..that's part of the attraction of camping...who needs modern conveniences when you can suffer like a homeless person and pay the campground for the privilege.
