    Climate change is getting worse and the world in general is sliding into fascism. The odds of things getting better in our lifetimes is very low. I’m only happy when I’m focusing on what’s around me and not the big picture, because the big picture is bleak.

      I agree that things are bleak. I also try to focus on practical, local things on which I can have a positive impact.

      I’d like to think that some things will get better, and others will be less bleak.

      Climate change is occurring quicker than we had hoped, but we are making progress towards mitigating the worst effects, even of that progress is slower than we had hoped.
