What is geoscience?
Geoscience (also called Earth Science) is the study of Earth. Geoscience includes so much more than rocks and volcanoes, it studies the processes that form and shape Earth's surface, the natural resources we use, and how water and ecosystems are interconnected. Geoscience uses tools and techniques from other science fields as well, such as chemistry, physics, biology, and math! Read more...

Yeah, you and me both. It's only natural. It's not really selfishness, I'd argue it's more like survival. I think that things are likely to get real ugly just when my partner and I hit retirement and start getting frail. Not much I can do about that other than prepare, but ultimately you and I are not going to see the end of this issue in our lifetimes, but we can collectively help ensure that the younger generations do. 'A society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they know they shall never sit' and all that. It sucks but that makes it all the more important learn to celebrate things like this article that'll help make it suck less. Enjoy the little wins.
Thanks for helping me look at things from a different angle!
No problem :) Here's some more good news stories. Stay happy if you can, friend.
