@rbreich Robert, you are brilliant! The fact that this is the first time i click on your video only tells how downtrodden and damaged i am after 30 years in IT.

Greta Thunberg (@gretathunberg) writes:

"When we say that our leaders have not been taking any climate action during the last thirty years, we could not be more wrong. In fact, they have been very busy. But not in the way that you might think — or hope.

"They have spent this time actively delaying action, creating frameworks full of loopholes that will benefit their own national short-term economic policies — and their own popularity. And as long as the level of awareness is as low as it is today, they will continue to get away with it."

That's from page 92 in The Climate Book -- https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/709837/the-climate-book-by-greta-thunberg/

Billionaires who condemned Trump are now flocking to his campaign.

It’s obvious why.

Biden wants a 25% tax on billionaires.

Trump wants to double down on tax cuts for the rich.

All they care about is lining their own pockets no matter the cost to everyone else.

@rbreich A list of names and their posts/interviews would help when I try to convince the upper middle class they are the hostage of the superrich and thus helping them destroy the planet.

I miss a lot of my old comfort foods, like scrambled eggs and bacon for breakfast, a grilled cheese sandwich for lunch, then a burger and fries for dinner, with cheesecake for dessert. Sometimes I miss those things, BUT I don’t miss all the extra weight I used to carry.

In a few days I’ll celebrate my 70th birthday. Fifteen years ago, when I was still dining out at restaurants quite often and eating whatever made me feel good for the moment, I weighed about 60 pounds (27 kg) more than I do now. I was overweight, unhealthy, and unhappy.

Since then, by adopting a (mostly) vegan diet and getting regular vigorous exercise, I’ve reached an optimal weight and I feel wonderful — physically, mentally, and emotionally. So, even though I sometimes do miss those old comfort foods, I’m really glad they are now only a memory and not a daily habit.

@breadandcircuses Thank you so much for making yourself understood outside of the US/UK + some other backward regions!
