    Lots of other things are being done. Individual contributions do help, but you’re also one of 8 billion people.

    The real solutions will come from the energy sector, capital moving to green/sustainable investment, and a long-term realistic transition away from fossil fuels. Until that happens, were basically just bailing water out of a sinking ship - helpful and important, but not something that will fix the ship.

    Good news is progress is being made even in places hostile to such progress (like the US).

      Right, I guess the progress just feels like it’s not happening since I’m boiling alive on the daily. I just hope it’s enough that the next generation won’t have to suffer for the ignorance and greed that’s brought this about.

        I feel you 100% man. That’s why I got involved - I felt like I needed to try to be some small part of the solution. Idk that we’re making a ton of headway all the time (I lobby to Republicans) but I’d rather tilt at the ol windmill than sit idly by.
