A Third Reason to Die Before I Get Old
1) I'll never see any of the money I've been pumping into Social Secuirty all these years

2) As the World's oil supply dries up, fighting over the remaining energy will put us into constant global war

3) Even if we live with perpetual warring for oil, there might not be anything to fight for: "Humans are stripping nature at an unprecedented rate and will need two planets' worth of natural resources every year by 2050 on current trends"

That's what the WWF conservation group reported today. According to their studies, humans are basically creating waste from resources at a faster rate than the planet can replace those resources.

We should consider ourselves lucky it is only two planets' worth of natural resources. If everyone lived like an American, we would need 5 planets of resources each year come 2050. Says a lot about our culture, doesn't it?
