Seeing the story play out over the span of a few decades really hit home about how long we've let this stuff go on already and how long it can take for people to change views and seek justice. We just need to do all we can and keep trying to set the example.

Being the main contributor of [email protected], my feeds get full of environmental destruction and habitat and species loss, and it's tough to filter through all that every day looking for positive stories.

I agree there too. Finding the fine line between staying informed and going nuts from all the negative stuff has forced me to step back at times, just for the sake of staying sane.
