And some phrases, too
Denial makes us feel angry
Aghast at the politics
And dilution of the issue
We’re scared but hopeful
Human beings are capable of brilliant and terrible things
Amounts in the atmosphere are dangerous
The tipping point is unknown
We’re excited and worried
The severity of this issue isn’t being shared
We’re confused
because it’s a no brainer
We’re anxious but hopeful
There’s too much talk, not enough action
We’re aghast, inspired by local action
We need a (anti) leader(s)
We’re anxious yet hopeful
Despairing, we’re scared, but we’re hopeful
We are resilient
So we can keep trying to move forward
Inspired by what’s happening, outside of politics
Inspired by kid strikes, Greta Thunberg
Good voices will come to the fore
