Link gone, but there's another on the page that comes up to the 'tune'. 
 Couldn't work out the lyrics - must be our generation gap.  The current 
state of faster-than-light impossible science (sans exotic matter) has us 
leaving Earth in arks - can't imagine where they got that from!  This would 
be very deep green as we'd have to recycle almost everything and fusion 
burn coal.  Watch an anime version of this (Captain Harlock), which was a 
bit like Tony's 'there's nowt down for us' thing.  We travel space to find 
no one in and then try to reverse time to return to an Earth worth living 
on.  A few tracks from these guys might have eased the movie along. 
 Harlock was big in Japan when I was there in the 80's, mostly killing 
women in droves, thinly disguised as Mazone aliens.  I think I detect a 
continuity problem!

Deep green is tough because we can imagine what it probably means - very 
radical change.  I preferred working with social spiders to ants.  They 
could gang together to bring down birds and bats, but my interest was in 
how bacteria controlled their reproduction, often killing male eggs.  We 
carry more micro-organisms than human cells about with us.  Maybe they will 
'Borg' us to sensible form?  A working fusion reactor would help - Iter has 
gone quiet after the usual promises, with energy as cheap as water costing 
out at more than burning coal.

And the good news - we can watch entertainment we don't want on 57 static 
and mobile devices.  Didn't they listen to the Boss?
