This is why we can have people making millions of dollars a year being upset about taking a 10% pay cut. Their brain has set the most that they ever had as the baseline of what they absolutely need. When they achieve more that baseline just moves up. Essentially we're biologically disposed to consume more and more and think it's normal. There's probably lots of species like this. We however also became &quot;smart&quot; and used that bit of extra brainpower to become very successful. Mix the two together and we're a run away force of consumption which rapidly becomes very destructive to everything around us as moving that baseline up a bit is all that our primitive brain really cares about. <b>Statistics</b> : 731 Replies || 31954 Views Last post by <span style="color: #00AA00;"><b>strider3700</b></span> Environmental Doom - Digest http://www.malthusia.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1505&start=720#p29086 http://www.malthusia.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1261&start=220#p29085 Sun, 20 May 2012 06:14:47 GMT <h5><a href="http://www.malthusia.com/viewforum.php?f=4" title="Environmental Doom">Environmental Doom</a></h5> <b>Re: Climate Chaos Is Here</b> <a href="http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=7409078n&amp;tag=mg;eveningnews" class="postlink">http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=7409078n&amp;tag=mg;eveningnews</a> In short, wake tf up!

It's about a large rogue planet called Melancholia doing a dangerously close flyby to Earth and a family's varied responses to it. I think both women and men might like it because it has some &quot;chick flick&quot; aspects - but I wouldn't watch it on a night when you are in an action movie mood, because that it is definitely not (for the most part).
