My kid's generation doesn't really have a shred of hope, does it?

135. My kids grew up on the farm where the changing climate is experienced intimately

I never had to tell my kids anything. They can see it and feel it.

We also provide homegrown veggies to two local food banks. The ever increasing line waiting to come in and the astonishing need for more and more food is very, very sobering - my youngest has been moved to tears on more than one occasion.

I have no answers for them really. I do my best to lead by example. I live a very environmentally sustainable life-style and have raised them similarly. Im active in anti-war efforts, GOTV, and my local environmental group which is primarily organized around anti-fracking efforts but we've also worked on groundwater and habitat preservation efforts.

I encourage them to become connected to their communities because sooner or later that's going to matter, a lot.
