Beware of the shiny new idea syndrome. I don't doubt your sincerity, but positive effects of our actions are best measured in decades of commitment. Being all-in on renewables, then losing interest in favour of something better does not bode well imho.
- corford 9y agoStop getting excited and not doing are two different things :) Of course I'll continue recycling, using renewables and making sensible transportation choices. There's no negative with any of that, so why not. It's just hard to get excited about the impact of it all when one considers the sheer numbers behind animal agriculture. Should also note: both films are very persuasive - plan to spend a few weeks now fact checking before I dive in to a vegan existence.
