Some lessons to be learned by this.
1. We can't rely on governments to save our planet. It must come from us as individuals, and groups formed to do the work.
2. Being smart about spending earns long term dividends. €10K+ = roughly 10 yrs extra benefits.

Another argument against factory/industrial farming. There are so many perennial plants that were widely eaten by people in a wide range of climates, that provided better nutrition, better flavor, and required no additions from chemical companies. People need to think about growing their own food.

We live in a system that has been built to lock us in, to make us dependent on the system. It is still possible to become free from all this, but it requires massive change, and giving up things that make us comfortable. It is here we learn that comfort is not the reward we truly seek.

T is waging war against U.S. citizens, he's seemingly diverted attention away from the Epstein files, and without any media coverage I've seen, he's been selling or trading vital habitat areas to oil companies to damage and further harm planetary health. This is just the tip. We are so screwed.

Looking at shelves and shelves of highly processed, and chemicalized salad dressings I went into my kitchen and made my own. Avocado oil, balsamic vinegar, spicy mustard, fresh-squeezed lemon juice, raw honey, salt and pepper. Yum!
Chemicalized. I made the word up, but I like it so I'm keeping it.

One example of how habitat loss is impacting wildlife. It impacts us, as well. Global climate change is driven not just by emissions, but by the loss of habitats that help to moderate weather, prevent drought, &c.
*We* must change and restore habitats.

We have been programmed into insatiable consumerism. We've been shaped so that we think of gaining more . . . and more . . . and more. Whether we need it, or not, whether we already have enough, or not.
