Essentially they do not know what to do about it, even that their own scientific institutes say that our state is alarmingly critical. They do not know what to do about because they have not yet learned to flip their games in "positive actions" rather than always having a secondary agenda based on quite short-term profit gains.
The USA and its allies are still waging wars in the middle east – it has nothing or very little to do with Terrorist, but mainly about controlling (the access to) the oil resources in the region. Recently it has become clear that Genie Oil and Gas have been allowed to extract Oil and Gas from the Golan Heights (by Israel) – These hold more Oil and Gas resources than what Saudi Arabia has – So the Syrian nightmare was not even about those competing gas pipeline to Europe but about the Golan Heights reserves. Checking their strategic advisory board members it is clear to everybody that nothing in this regard has changed; Dick Cheney, Robert Murdock, Jacob Rothschild, OM, GBE and several others of the same caliber.
To get back to the topic and considering the lobby chains behind the current Government in the US administration, it is impossible for these people "in the middle of it" to change anything and the reason they have to tell bullshit and lie more or less all the time. We can not expect them to do anything really, the interest behind them are far to powerful. Without enough oil flowing into the USA (Even USA producing itself as well) the mighty US military will not be able to operate continuously in case of a larger conflict – essentially rendering it far weaker than it numbers and technology suggest. – This would be like losing your main asset, the thing that makes you lose have the upper hand in the Geostrategic game for natural resources.
I am happy to see more and more young people getting aware that their own future might be compromised far more than what is being portrayed most of the time. The planet can not sustain our way of living – the number of resources we use and adding to one of the important issues – all the meat we eat (cow meat that is). Cow meat has a higher influence on the planets C02 than all the cars together – but two wrongs do not make one right. The only difference being that car emissions are adding other toxins along with it. Excluding to talk about the GMO based industrial productions because that topic adds a whole lot of other long-term problems.
The in fact only way to change our current direction is to start consuming differently – Large corps are there to earn money – If consumers buy different products be assured they will find new methods to supply the demand. It is not a beautiful prospect and they will fight is as long as they can, be eventually they will need to change course as well to keep selling their products and services. The power of the people lies in their wallets and what they spend their money on. The poorer the people are the fewer options they have to change what they buy – So the insane and ever growing inequality between rich and poor currently is providing yet another more efficient change of global longer-term sustainability goals.
