No one is coming to save us. Only rebellion will prevent an environmental apocalypse
{ George Monbiot writes eloquently about the despair that comes with climate science awareness in the face of today’s political situation along with the need to resist succumbing to hopelessness and inaction. He suggests, IT AIN’T OVER TILL IT’S OVER! Although much destruction is already in the pipeline and heading our way so we’ll see few immediate benefits of our actions. Still, immediate action is required because every failure will only make the down stream destruction even more horrendous. I provide some quotes from his recent article and encourage you to link to the full version to read all of it, much is missing from this summary. }
