Virtual voluntary assistance

{11/14/2010} What could change? Everyone asked. While scientists talking basically of doom, aimed to the possibilities of polar melting and nearby forthcoming Tsunamis, the optimist said that men could adapt to anything and still be a part of difficult times. But how could there the unity if so few took their time to move forward?

In the middle of the challenges of the century, the populations continued forward, programmed for daily survival. As time passed the disappointment of scandals – a daily matter – corruption and more corruption seemed endless and that men could never free himself from it. People that were 60, 70 or older were more conscious, even though the physical effort acquired by the rigors of maintaining a quality of life, plus the load of shame of not having been able to rid themselves of greed and ambition as everyone else
Climate continued hammering on the people at both hemispheres. Being able to adapt to heat or cold and other climate changes was being discussed. Water usage controls started everywhere; first as statistics and then alerting and rationing. There was water and fire at rebellions everywhere. Nature fires, tremendous storms, destruction of cities and harvests, flooding and devastation. In the middle of these troubles, craziness at the alarming news.

At this times, charity and solidarity started to be virtual; with a click, millions would be transferred to institutions that would preserve forests or children from malnutrition. The people were eager to contribute with stocks, having their busy times unavailable so they looked to delegate their power and actions into others to proceed. But would these actions be enough? What was it that kept imprisoned so many of the good men and women? {Chronicle 061}
