The end is near? ... Life will go on.

Some prophets are prophets of doom.

The uncertain prophecy: Life will go on.

Will there be disasters?

There will be disasters.

But we will overcome them.

The are two potential disasters

That we can't easily mitigate.

We could destroy ourselves

With Global Thermonuclear War.

Or suffer a major asteroid hit

With similar cataclysmic effect.

Many prophets have seen doom

on the horizon...

But 1984 has come and past

As well as 1999

But a new millenia was born

And life goes on.

We need to prepare for disaster.

We need the arks.

Right now the sea is one of the most dangerous places.

The uncertain prophecy: we will pacify parts of the seas.

We will pacify the oceans

And harness the excess energy.

We will direct it for good.

And we will create safe havens.

The down side:

Some havens will be safer than others.

It is amazing money can buy.

But that has always been the way.

Want a piece of paradise?

We will grow a garden paradise.

Let our life begin

At the edge of the sea

With an array of man-made marshes.

We will build marshes

That will sustain lots of life

And enable us

to divert hurricanes.
