A POST-EARTH DAY EDITORIAL COMMENT


When cartoonist Ron Cobb created this series for radical Art Kunkin's The Los Angeles Free Press (or the Freep as it was affectionately called) in the 1960's, "green ideas" such as ecology, conservation, sustainability and recycling on a large scale were in their infancy. If you've been following these posts, you will know that Cobb had a dim view of the future of industrialized America. Despite heaps of expensive regulatory mandates and billions of dollars spent on the pitiful attempts at creating realistic energy sources, it's not hard to at least agree with a portion of his cautionary art.
