A ship.
A spill.
Gallons in the water.
Thousands dead.

My imaginary world of awesomeness:
Vets, scientists, clean-up crew.
Working together to fix what went wrong.
No one scrambling to find the culprit but trying to save what's still there.

Reality:
Near nothing is being done, and what is isn't working.
People constantly blaming others, arguing over trivial things.
Throwing the guilt towards others like children afraid to get in trouble for a stain on the carpet.

Is it too much to ask for society to grow up and deal with our mistakes?

Is it too much to ask for everyone to just shut up and help out?


Is it just too much to ask that we focus on the solution and not the cause?





Sadly I think it might be.
...



Edit: "Throwing the guilt towards others like children afraid to get in trouble for a stain on the carpet." Mainly from :iconaeori: not me
