[Intro]
The role of being droll
With a goal of rock n’ roll

[Verse 1]
Listen to me boy
You can’t be coy
And, you know why
You can’t be shy

[Bridge]
In this day and age
On our final page
Time to come alive
(Arrive!)

The role of being droll
(Deliver humor)
With a goal of rock n’ roll
(Make them clamor)
Get ’em to shout
(Shout!)
And, jump about
(Bug-out!)

[Verse 2]
What the Man said
Don’t wind up dead
And, you know why
You don’t wanna die

[Bridge]
In this day and age
On our final page
Time to come alive
(Arrive!)

[Chorus]
What do you have to say
(The irie way)
We play more reggae
(Get ’em to sway)
Get ’em to shout
(Shout!)
And, jump about
(Bug-out!)

[Bridge]
In this day and age
On our final page
Time to come alive
(Arrive!)

[Outro]
Get ’em to shout
(Shout!)
And, jump about

Drastic
Or fantastic
I’m asking you
Your point-of-view

[Verse 1]
From your point-of-view
What should we do
Is it too late
To participate

[Chorus]
Drastic (Spastic)
Or fantastic (Music)
I’m asking you
Your point-of-view

Are you in the dark
Or basking in the light
Situation stark
Or basking in delight

[Verse 2]
From your point-of-view
Will you get through
Are you too late
To anticipate

Drastic (Spastic)
Or fantastic (Music)
I’m asking you
Your point-of-view
(What do you do?)

[Bridge]
Are you in the dark

[Intro]
These days
We get by
In so many ways

Then the ground, too hot to touch
Till the wind flow
Will blow….
Blow me down
(Down, down, down]

(In so many ways)
Always going to try
These days

So lucky to be
(So happy to see)
No (Oh, no)
Nothing’s troublin’ me
(I’ve come to see)

Nest, it’ll rain and pour
No doubt followed by drought
And so much more
Woah (woe)… shout
“Blow me down!”

You Can’t Come Back

By admin | Published: August 29, 2024

[Intro]
Call it reincarnation
Hesitation
Imagination
Evaporation
(Can’t come back
When back you lack)

[Verse 1]
I’ll catch you on the flip-side
On the back-end
Back where we begin
(Again)
Can’t come back
When back you lack

[Chorus]
Call it reincarnation
(Hesitation)
Imagination
(Evaporation)
Creation
(Damnation)

You can’t come back
(When there’s a lack of back)
You can’t return
(When will we learn)

[Verse 2]
See you later, bye-bye
(On-the-fly)
After a while
(A lost smile)
… to die…
For (more)

[Chorus]
Call it reincarnation
(Hesitation)
Imagination
(Evaporation)
Creation
(Damnation)

You can’t come back
(When there’s a lack of back)
You can’t restore
(Forever more)

Looking Out

By admin | Published: August 29, 2024

[Intro]
Dirty rat
Caught in the act
And, that is that

[Verse 1]
A by-the-book
Puzzled look
From a fingered crook
Opened the flood gate
To hate

[Bridge]
Dirty rat
Caught in the act
And, that is that

[Chorus]
When you look within
Where do you begin
Do you ever doubt
Looking out?
(Look out!)

[Verse 2]
Took the sinker and hook
No debate… is own bait
Why a puzzled look
Opening the flood gate
To hate

[Bridge]
Dirty rat
Caught in the act
And, that is that

[Chorus]
When you look within
Where do you begin
Do you ever doubt
Looking out?
(Look out!)

[Bridge]
Fat cat
Caught in the act
And, that is that

[Outro]
Looking out…
Do you ever doubt?
(Look out!)

[Intro]
Is this thing on?
(Beyond gone)

[Verse 1]
Is my microphone on
(Can you hear here what I say?)
Some sort of a con
(Am I your prey?)

[Bridge]
Is this thing on?
(Beyond gone)

[Chorus]
Coming clear the atmosphere
We no longer hold dear
No fear to smear the land
Yet, we claim to understand
(Man’s damned demand)

[Verse 2]
Push the button to start
(Can we start our heart?)
Let’s turn this thing on
(Let love dawn)

This thing is on

Coming clear the atmosphere
We need to hold dear
No “fear n’ smear” ’round here
We can hear here
(Damn Man’s demand)

This thing is on

The question I’ve got
Are we free or not…
(Free or not?)

[Verge 1]
On the verge

On the edge
(Of a ledge)

[Chorus]
Waiting for the hammer to fall
(Anticipating)
Failed to heed the call

The question I’ve got
Are we free or not…

Oh, to serve

Not so kind
(On my mind)

Waiting for the hammer to fall

Failed to heed the call

A SCIENCE NOTE
As an economist, I have spent my career studying risk management, and in the process, I have also become a climate scientist — because climate change is the greatest risk to humanity. Climate science is closely tied to our emotions, particularly hate and love. The hatred of scientists and intelligence is one of the most significant factors contributing to the potential demise of modern civilization. If you’re over 8 years old, you should NOT be reposting memes. Most memes are generated by foreign actors (e.g., Russia) attempting to sow division through hate. Memes that promote class warfare, advocate taxing the rich, reference corporate greed or the economy, criticize philanthropy, demonize immigrants, undermine climate science, or promote “drill, baby, drill” are prime examples. If you’re under 8 years old, you shouldn’t be on social media at all. STOP REPOSTING HATEFUL MEMES.

The solution lies in increased education and LOVE.

From a paper I coauthored: The government’s actions, or lack thereof, represent their constituents’ hate and ignorance, leading to a situation where “worst-case” predictions for climate change have become the “best-case” expectations. The ramifications of these decisions are dire, prompting a revision of climate models to reflect a much grimmer outlook. The new projections indicate a potential maximum global temperature increase of 9°C within this century, a stark rise from the previously estimated 4°C over the next millennium.

What Can I Do? There are plenty of things you can do to help save the planet: stop using fossil fuels, consume less, and love more.

Fanning Flames

By admin | Published: August 27, 2024

[Intro}
What kind of desire…
To promote wildfire
Fanning flames higher
All the while dire

[Verse 1]
Tender the tinder
Too dry to try
Careless care less
Embark the spark

[Chorus]
What desire…
To promote wildfire
Fanning flames higher
All the while dire

[Bridge]
Unnatural to aspire
Set ablaze
A fire
Amaze

[Verse 2]
Wind won’t rescind
You know she’ll blow
Stoke the smoke
’till all is aglow

[Chorus]
What desire…
To promote wildfire
Fanning flames higher
All the while dire

[Bridge]
Unnatural to aspire
Set ablaze
A fire
Amaze

[Chorus]
What desire…
To promote wildfire
Fanning flames higher
All the while dire

[Outro]
Unnatural to aspire
Set ablaze
A fire
Amaze

 

A SCIENCE NOTE

Several feedback loops involve brown carbon, lightning, wildfires, arctic warming, ice melt, and permafrost collapse. Brown carbon, with a low albedo, absorbs more heat, releasing sequestered carbon and methane into the atmosphere, creating a self-reinforcing cycle.

Studies have identified a feedback loop between lightning and forest fires. Global warming increases extreme weather events, conducive to lightning. More lightning ignites trees and soil, releasing warming CO2, creating more storms and lightning. The Forests at Risk Due to Lightning Fires study reveals the sensitivity of intact forests to potential increases in lightning fires, impacting terrestrial carbon storage and biodiversity.

“What many people may not be aware of is that lightning is the most common ignition source for fires in remote temperate and boreal forests,” says Thomas Janssen, research associate at VU Amsterdam. These forests store large amounts of carbon, which is released in the form of greenhouse gases during the fire. The research reveals that 77% of the burned area in intact forest regions outside the tropics is due to lightning fires, and the number of strikes is expected to increase by 11 to 3 % per degree warming with ongoing climate change.

“When a thunderstorm passes through this landscape, there are thousands of lightning strikes, and some hundreds of them start little fires,” said Prof Sander Veraverbeke from the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, one of the authors on the research paper. “And these can grow together into mega-fire complexes that become the size of small countries. Once these fires are so big, it becomes very difficult to do anything about them.”

More wildfires create more CO2 and more brown carbon that result in more global warming that results in more lightning strikes creating more wildfires resulting in more global warming thawing more permafrost allowing more emissions of CO2 and methane resulting in more warming, creating many more feedback loops.
