Almost as if yesterday never happened.
I don't know about you but I am rather alarmed at the way our climate is under threat. Hardly anyone seems to care, even reacting in a blase way toward the news of it. In fact, one hardly sees it on today's news cycle.
Is making money so much more important than making sure there is a world left for us to live on and in? Are parents of young children concerned about their future and if so, are they changing their consumption of stuff and their behaviour? One can't keep blaming it on politics or even worse, await for someone else to change first.
Every little bit we do or chose not to do affects the climate. Most of us are so good at sharing innate nothings on social media so perhaps we should encourage our friends to do something worthwhile; change one thing each and every day to fight climate change. One thing that will help to lessen the severity of climate change. It can be as little as making your own lunch, walking to work, forgoing meat for a day/week/month, switching off the tap while brushing your teeth or buying products produced in a responsible manner.
People are so worried about not eating meat as if they would shrivel up and perish in the process. There are a wealth of substitute products available in most supermarkets ( gosh, even here in our neck of the woods the shelves are filled with meat alternatives ) and honestly, eating a few meals a week sans meat is hardly worth arguing about.
Even if you need to become accustomed to food that tastes different to what you are used to, isn't it worthwhile to make the effort so that your children or grandchildren have a chance of living their lives to the fullest?
