This week\u2019s inspirational quote tells a hard truth. The photo below is from Geeamana, Romania, a village purposefully flooded with toxic mine tailings to drive away the population. Now a United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization heritage site, Geamana\u2019s church steeple is a reminder that too many environmental consequences are charged to humanity\u2019s bill by unaccountable corporations. Pearl Jam\u2018s new album, Dark Matter, features the lyric: \u201cIt\u2019s strange these days when everybody else pays for someone else\u2019s mistake. This blame takes shape, still everybody else pays for someone else\u2019s mistake.\u201d<\/p>\n
