Sit with this feeling

There has never been a more crucial time
in the history of humanity. When I look
out at this view and I see all the trees
and all the biodiversity, I think to myself
I'm doing this for you, I'm fighting for you.
Because I know that it's only to get harder
for all of these species. It's only to get
hotter, there's going to be more droughts,
there's going to be more fires if we continue
on our current trajectory.
So I'm fighting for you. I know that I don't
exist without you. And I know that there has
never been a more crucial time in the history
of humanity to fight for what you care about.
Because my individual actions could determine
whether entire species that we've shared a
common ancestor with and that have existed on
this planet for 3.8 billion years will continue
existing or not.
I am not exaggerating. I am not being extreme.
I know the science and I know where we are heading
and I know it's already happening.
And I know that I can have a big fucking impact.
And I know that if I inspire more people to take
some more responsibility for our situation and
sit with this feeling that we can determine where
the species continue to exist or not.
So I'm going to sit here with that feeling, and
I'm going to look out at this view.
