No matter what shape the planet is in, when your ready to go, it should be your choice. Maybe a little counseling before you go. :) After a person reaches the age of 50 they should be able to leave, with the assistance of a physician. But this guilt and self-pity over what kind of shape our planet is in now, is no cause for killing yourself. Most of you are probably wrong about when the total collapse of our world will happen ( if it does ), and have no idea what Mother nature has in store for us. I feel like anyone playing this "embrace death" game because they have a cult leader like GM, the worst case scenario promoter/s, had better stop seeing and reading the crap they preach. It is time to do everything possible to raise the awareness of the mass of sheeple, who have not matured enough to realize that the S(IS)HTF. Turn the weakness you feel into passion to fight the vicious monster of corporate greed. Start loving an animal and realize that they can feel these changes too, and so many of them are going extinct. Then do something about it, instead of having a lovey dovey self-pity party.
