today my wisdom is: the ecological crisis of our planet is not a thing that will Suddenly destroy us sometime in the next century—it has taken decades of continuous work for our biosphere to be preserved thus far, and it will take decades more of continuous work to continue preserving it.
The apocalypse is not a single event hovering in the future bearing down on us while we sit helplessly. We are at least 150 years into an ongoing "apocalypse."
Things will continue to steadily get worse without steady action, but "augh! it's already too late to stop climate change and mass extinctions!" is specifically the worst response
Happy Earth Day!! your friendly neighbourhood earth avatar says “save the planet! (and dont be afraid to m*rder anyone who disagrees)” 🌎💚✨
"That's what not a very good villain does."
Y'all understand the assignment. Right?
Earth Mother.

If we consider the metaphorical idea of Earth as a mother carrying an unborn New World, it suggests taking actions to support a sustainable and thriving future for our planet. Here are some ways you can contribute to that vision:
1. Environmental Stewardship: Embrace a mindset of responsibility and care for the environment. Recognize that our actions impact the Earth and strive to be a responsible steward of its resources.
2. Sustainable Lifestyle Choices: Make conscious choices in your daily life that reduce your ecological footprint. This includes adopting sustainable practices like conserving water and energy, reducing waste, and choosing eco-friendly products.
3. Conservation and Restoration: Engage in efforts to protect and restore natural habitats. Support organizations that work towards conservation, reforestation, and wildlife preservation.
4. Climate Action: Recognize the urgency of addressing climate change. Advocate for policies and practices that reduce greenhouse gas emissions, promote renewable energy, and transition to a low-carbon economy.
5. Education and Awareness: Spread knowledge and raise awareness about environmental issues. Educate others about the importance of sustainability, biodiversity, and the interconnectedness of ecosystems.
6. Support Environmental Initiatives: Contribute to organizations and initiatives dedicated to environmental causes. This can involve donating funds, volunteering your time, or supporting campaigns and projects that aim to protect the environment.
7. Sustainable Agriculture and Food Choices: Support local and organic farmers, choose sustainably sourced and ethically produced food, reduce food waste, and consider adopting a plant-based or reduced-meat diet.
8. Responsible Consumption: Be mindful of your purchasing decisions. Prioritize durable, ethically produced, and environmentally friendly products. Avoid single-use items and opt for reusable alternatives.
9. Community Engagement: Get involved in local environmental projects, community gardens, or clean-up efforts. Collaborate with others to create positive change at the grassroots level.
10. Political Engagement: Stay informed about environmental policies and engage with your elected representatives. Voice your concerns and support candidates who prioritize environmental sustainability.
