“Climate change is real. It is happening right now, it is the most urgent threat facing our entire species (and so many others) and we need to work collectively together and stop procrastinating.”
(Leonardo Di Caprio)
There once was a fantastic quote "We think too much and feel too little"
I'm afraid that these days, people are too lazy to think and their feel limit is no further than their tongues end (this is my "politically correct" manner of speaking).
How do we define being normal, truth, beauty, responsibility, future?
How dare we to throw with mountains of mud in our own children fighting for their future?
How can we look in our children's eyes and do nothing for them to survive?
The photo was taken by my son, Alex.

"We can no longer only focus on individual and separate issues like electrical cars, nuclear power, meat, aviation, bio fuels etc etc. We urgently need a holistic view to adress the full sustainability crisis and the ongoing ecological disaster. And this is why I keep saying that we need to start treating the crisis as the crisis it is."
(Greta Thunberg, March 2019)

... for peace for the brave people in Ukraine who unfortunately still have to suffer from Putin's vile invasion of their country and all the others who suffer from destructive wars somewhere in the world.
... and for saving the fundaments of life on our planet, for which far too little is still being done due to greed and unscrupulous economic interests!
Please excuse me if I disturb your pre-Christmas mood, but the above problems are far more important for every one of us ... !

"How dare you pretend that the climate crisis can be solved with just 'business as usual' and some technical solutions? With today's emissions levels, that remaining CO2 budget will be entirely gone within less than 8 1/2 years". (Greta Thunberg)

"Success is not how high you have climbed, but how you make a positive difference to the world."
(Roy T. Bennett)
I wish the warring parties in Ukraine, Israel and other war zones around the world would see it that way too. Then they would stop all this heinous killing, destruction and misery they are causing immediately ... and everyone could finally start to care about a more sustainable life on this planet!

ENG: A topic that polarizes, "#FridaysForFuture‘ is a must for some and only annoying for others. Although the climate issue concerns us all, doesn't it?
I would like to say thank you for your comments, whether pro or contra.
GER: Ein Thema das polarisiert, „#FridaysForFuture" ist für den einen ein muss und für den anderen nur lästig. Obwohl das Klima Thema uns doch alle angeht, oder?
Ich sage jetzt schon mal Dankeschön für eure Kommentare, ob Pro oder Kontra.

You can have all the money in your hands
All the possessions anyone can ever have
But it's all worthless treasure
True worth is only measured not by what you got
But what you got in your heart
You can have, you can have everything
But what does it, what does it mean
It all means nothing
If you don't stand up for something
You can't just talk the talk
You got to walk that walk yes you do
It all means nothing
If you don't stand up for something
And I'll stand up for you
And I'll stand up for you
yes I will, yes I will
You do the best to do the best that you can do
Then you can look in the mirror
proud of who's looking back at you
Define the life you're living
Not by what you take but what you're giving
And if you bet on love no way you'll ever lose
take a stand, make a stand for what's right
It's always worth, always worth the fight
‘Cuz It all means nothing
If you don't stand up for something
You can't just talk the talk
You got to walk that walk, yes you do
It all means nothing
If you don't stand up for something
and I'll stand up for you
Self respect, dignity
If that's all you got
Then you got all you need
And without that you don't have a thing
It all means nothing
If you don't stand up for something
You can't just talk the talk
You got to walk that walk, yes you do
It all means nothing
If you don't stand up for something
and I'll stand up for you.
Song by: Andra Day.
Two years ago I posted a picture of a droplet for "Fridays for Future" and some individual was complaining and insulting Greta Thunberg. This really upset me. The things she warned about have now come to fruition. It's time to stand up and do something for the future. It's 1 minute to Midnight! I hope you can spare a minute to watch the video.

"Twenty-five years ago people could be excused for not knowing much, or doing much, about climate change. Today we have no excuse."
(Desmond Tutu)
--------------------
I often talk to people who say, ‘No, we have to be hopeful and to inspire each other, and we can’t tell [people] too many negative things’ . . . But, no — we have to tell it like it is. Because if there are no positive things to tell, then what should we do, should we spread false hope? We can’t do that, we have to tell the truth.
Greta Thunberg
