Dear Geologist,
Yes, you are powerful.
You can spot the Gold and the Silver, the precious and the oil.
The world has valued you for last couple of centuries, for your knowledge.
My friend, now is the time, to tell the world.
That there was a lot more that you learned observing mother Earth.
That the metals, and the diamonds might be precious, but the life-forms that we see today, the ecosystems we see today, are even more precious!
That the elements have always been on the planet; but life-forms always belonged only to respective time-brackets.
That their survival, even within 'their' time-bracket, was always subject to their co-existence with the surrounding ecosystems.
...and that humans are not going to be an exception.
The remaining span of human existence on the planet, - whatever is that number - would be insignificant on Geological time scale (GTS). Be it decades or centuries, mere ticks on GTS, yet would be the time that will matter the most to us humans. Our story will be on the same part of the time line, as of the rest of today's creatures.
Dear Geologist,
Tell the world, you know much more.
Tell the world, you have a clue, about how to extend our last few years.
Tell the world, that getting along with the rest of our 'time-mates' is the only choice we have. Erasing them, one by one, is in fact pushing ourselves towards the inevitable, closer, faster.
Tell the world, shortening their span on time scale, we are only cutting our own short.

You know, you are dearer.
It is the time, to tell the world.
