There's similarly awful things going on all over currently. Wildfires, bleached corals, oil and toxic waste spills, flooding, catastrophic storms, it all gets to be depressing. But the good news is that more people than ever are aware and ready to make changes. I just hope enough of us are ready to live small lives in tight-knit communities where we don't rely so heavily on consumerist BS to live.
