Here's the funny thing with that. We watched things like Bill Nye and Captain Planet as kids. We've been aware of the evidence of science and the needs to change our society since a very young age. For many years we where told 'use plastic so they don't cut down trees' only to realize later that was wrong. All through it we where telling the parent and the grandparents that things needed to change and the future wasn't looking great.

Not one fuck was given.

So when it came time to be the parents and the mundane middle life drones many simply said hold onto what scraps you can and hope for the future, but in the meantime I just want to sit down for a bit. It's draining as hell to spend decades of your life being ignored, it's not a wonder we get called the forgotten generation.
