The word Carbon comes from the ancient Hebrew word karban or
sacrifice. It refers to the blackened remains of animals ritually
sacrificed as a burnt offering to G-d.
We are in danger today of sacrificing the world as we know it to our
Carbon-based easy-energy addiction.
If we keep burning the bodies of long-dead creatures (that’s why they
call it fossil fuel) then we will be condemning animals alive today to
a cruel and tragic climate-driven extinction, sacrificed to our love
of convenience and our extravagant lifestyles.
Unless we keep fossil fuels in the ground and rapidly transition to
renewable and sustainable economies and energy systems all that
will be left are the baked and blackened bones of a dying civilization.
