We are so unbelievably fucked it's not even funny anymore.

Glad to be child free, can’t imagine bringing a child into this world…

I’m terrified for my kiddo. We’ve done all we can over the past 10 years. Went plant based, got our winter heating off oil, ride electric bikes, all my lawn tools are electric, bought an EV. I’m running out of ideas.

Spoiler alert: your individual choices don't matter. Drastic and sweeping changes need to be made at the corporate/supply chain level if we have any hope of surviving this.

So... We're fucked.

Every bit helps. I can’t tell others to make changes if I don’t do it myself.

[–] Mjt8@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago

Sure you can. We don’t need to be martyrs to demand system-wide change

I’ve done this for 3 decades…. Shit has only got worse

This is way beyond being fixed at individual levels
