& that it will never be as good again. We were headed in a downward trajectory anyway, what with all the denial about climate change. Now, I think the climate fight is hopeless. We can't even get people to mask & vax for a pandemic, how are we going to get them to make the serious changes we need to save our environment? Besides, no one is even suggesting the serious changes we need to make, & the little things we say we're going to do, we put off. It's not looking good for the human race. I really won the human lottery in terms of when & where I was born.
