It would be so nice to believe it’s all fake news. To live in that false bubble of safety.

I hope there will be a tipping point in the world psyche. That to actually reduce or prevent mass human and non human suffering we need to think and act differently.

I think personally holding the leaders of countries and corporations for the environment damage they enable/cause would go a long way.

You won’t pollute a waterway or drain a river if you know that it could bankrupt you and get 20 lashes in the town square for being a greedy kunt
