My assumption is if you're rasing kids to take on those challeneges, you aren't one of the can kickers. Global problems take near global effort. Its not like "well son we tried nothing and now its on you." Its more like "here son become educated on whats happening, these are the things we've done individually to try to make a change and have a more sustainable mindset, now grab that brick and your picket sign theres a protest this morning."

Again the alternative is just giving up.

I'll be raising my kids on The Anarchist's Cook Book for this reason.

This morning I gave my son a talk about why we're not seeing the Paw Patrol movie.
