Depressing , yes . Scary , yes . One trait often common of human success throughout history is stubbornness and persistence , where , even when all seemed lost it was pulled back by the select few who wouldn ' t back down . That is where I am at right now . Those of us out there who actually give a shit need to actually work for the cause , be the change you want to see in the world Ghandi as it were . I asked myself if not me , who cares about this stuff , then who ? How can I expect others to do what I am not . I don ' t really have any obvious skills that cross over into tackling climate but its more than a daily mental debate in my head now . I want to do something . I just need to work out what . Ultimately , I believe there is a legitimate argument for believing its too little too late , but we sure as hell shouldn ' t go down without a fight , knowing you ' ve tried .
