Appreciated your piece and your explanations for inaction until your awakening this year. I tend to be cynical with the reality of our situation, but there's an underlying optimism for change or I wouldn't bother with any of my writings ( I think you've read one or more?) The science and facts are dire and we live in a world that is doubling down on fantasy solutions or ignoring reality entirely and hopium is worse than outright denial, in my opinion. But hope that is earned is definitely needed and the ability to see a new way of operating is part of that...thanks for your thoughts and it has inspired me to write a new piece - stay tuned!
