It’s the 6th of the 6th 2006… Oooh what an omen. Little more than twice a century do we get to cower in the face of the coming apocalypse.
I’d like to convince someone knowledgable to research the volume of water and biological matter occupied by the human population. I figure I’m occupying 60 litres of water or so at the moment as I sloosh around going about my daily business. Probably theres 10 times that amount sitting in circulation awaiting my use as I flush and wash and rinse cycle my way through life. I’m not trying to be a guilt monger… I’m not suggesting we shouldn’t occupy water, I’m just curious about it is all. I read once something about the ecological footprint of humans. Where a single american can occupy up to 4 football fields, the poorest individuals occupy barely the footprint of an outhouse. I’d say theres a certain volume of organic or organic potential matter on the planet and I’d suggest that humans occupy a decent amount of this, while storing that which is unused it fairly boring and uncolourful bio holding cells such as wheat farms and pig pens, rather than the tried and tested rainforests and oceans. Don’t look at me like that.. I’m not saying I have a solution… hell I don’t even think of it that often, but I just think that if we began thinking of ourselves as “70 cubic tonnes” heavy rather than “70kg” heavy we’d all feel… fatter… damn I thought something profound was going to come out of that last sentence.
Ok well theres some sketches up now. Octo - check.
