Given the ignorance of the average Arizonan about environmental issues, the Republic's series wasn't entirely a wasted effort. The problem here is that most people don't read newspapers, at least in Gannetized Phoenix. Obviously, there's little point in keeping civic consciousness alive in place that has become no place.

In our civic vacuum, talk radio and cable TV fill the void like it was a rectum. We're told global warming is a joke, that the environment is a buzzword, not a reality. Glibertarian certitude is our collective wisdom. And we're happy not to invest in the future because the individual taxpayer matters more than any social group we might call "Phoenix".

It's going to be interesting descent and I'd be happy to say Talton told you so. But the few who care already know that.
