Thank you for sharing your story. I can relate to everything you said, similar shit here in Bristol, alongside every local parent I know with ♾️ children. This topic is too triggering for me to even talk about it. Sending love & I hope your family get the support you deserve, soon. It’s a disgrace.

Too many people behave as sheepish bystanders. A room filling with smoke is a useful analogy, people often look to someone else to act first. This is mass behaviour on climate change. Slow boiling frogs. It is reluctance to listen to public health advice, scientists or safety warnings.

According to this, my GP lied to me about adults not being given the #Measles vaccine on the NHS. My GP refuses to give women HRT as well. Time to find a new GP I think. www.nhs.uk/vaccinations...

I have those kinds of fantasies too. I’m old enough to remember no internet.

If you have an exciting ecological project that needs funding, we can help! We offer grants to ecologists—from emerging researchers to established ones—with innovative ideas that might not receive funding elsewhere.

Buy a revolution? Sorry that’s my best suggestion.

There is barely any profit or royalty in paperbacks though… authors are already in poverty. Maybe one PB edition for a higher price might tick a lot of boxes on both financial and environmental sustainability? Average uk author income is 7k/pa, so the price is not about greed from the creators.
