It's been a depressing last few days, partly attributed to the distressing news of CO2 reaching 400 PPM in the Arctic as well as the general human destruction of the biosphere, the potential collapse of the European (then Chinese then American) economy and the fact that the US is on the fast-track to a new Gilded Age where the mega-rich control everything. Anyway, I won't get too much into it but I have to keep something in mind (so I can remember that I care enough to do something about it).
From the wisdom of Dr. Seuss
"And all that the Lorax left here in this mess was a small pile of rocks with the one word 'UNLESS.' Whatever that meant, well, I just couldn't guess.
That was long, long ago. But each day since that day, I've sat here and worried and worried away. Through the years, while my buildings have fallen apart, I've worried about it with all of my heart.
But now, says the Once-ler, now that you're here, the word of the Lorax seems perfectly clear. UNLESS someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not."
I'm someone. I'm here. And so are you. Let's change the world.
