    Exactly. Growing up I knew about climate change but it seemed like something was being done slowly. I had trust in the adults running the world because they hadn’t given me too glaring of reasons not to. By the time I was 18 (2012) it was clear it was a bit of a shitshow. It wasn’t just that I was getting older, my little sister followed that path quickly. I remember explaining to my parents as a teenager that I wouldn’t be as wealthy as them despite wanting to follow the same career path. Not knowing about this doesn’t make anything better, the only solution is to fix the damn problems.
