I feel like we could all be doing more. Like we’re not taking the threats of a rapidly changing environment seriously. Like we’re going along at a slightly altered pace of destruction, maybe slightly slower, but still steady and strong. Why aren’t we taking bigger steps to stop global warming? Why aren’t we trying harder, sacrificing more?

If we truly don’t believe there’s anything worth fighting to prevent, then maybe we’re right. Maybe global warming isn’t a problem at all. But I don’t believe that’s the case. I think global warming is a real threat, and things are only going to get worse. I also believe that we’re just getting started, and things are going to become progressively more geared towards helping our environment. The first step is to get everybody on the bandwagon, and the engines of political persuasion have seemed to come into recent usage.

On NBC last week was “Green Week,” where many shows had a St. Patrick’s Day-esque green hue, and were accompanied by “green tips” from cast members and other VIPs. Once the public is ready, and I think we are, then the bigger steps can be put into effect. Maybe I’m just getting impatient. Maybe continual change has caused me to expect things like a new iPhone or a new Segway or a new nationwide conservation policy.

I just really want us to win in this.
