The pull-quote from this interview with David Suzuki is noteworthy--but I think the entire interview is worth reading. I've admired David Suzuki and his commitment to public-science education for years, and I still do.

Climate Justice Alliance is amazing. Blocking their EPA funding because they recognize that the destruction of Palestine includes ecological aspects...is unconscionable.
Biden could be doing so much before he leaves office. Instead, he’s doing this.

From the opinion page of today’s NYTimes: “One of the most maddening aspects of the 2024 election is the extent to which so many voters viewed Trump as a mostly normal political candidate.” Hmm, I wonder what newspaper was giving voters an idea like that!
