Great.
Thank you.
By the way, I assume you're going to be cool with the way you're making this electricity, right?
Like you wouldn't ruin a mountain or – you're not going to make any species go extinct or ravage a forest or anything.
And we've come to learn that we've given that agency to so many corporations who, of course –
ravage natural resources left and right because they serve profit above all else.
To my way of thinking,
When I first started reading Wendell Berry, my epiphany was, oh, I'm not going to get this messaging.
It's easy to tune this out and just be a lazy consumer and watch TV and go to work and buy my stuff and then get old and die.
And if we stay...
Within that set of blinders, if we choose that myopic life path, then we will exterminate ourselves on the planet.
The planet's going to be just fine.
She was here long before us, and she'll be here long after us.
So if we care about one another and ourselves and our families and the health of our species, then...
We should try and do the right thing even when no one is watching.
And pay attention to, you know, uncomfortable, inconvenient truths like climate change and corporate agribusiness problems, you know, that need reform.
Just learning about who makes our food, where it's sourced and how, and how that's healthy or not healthy.
I feel like young people really get it.
So I'm optimistic.
I'm hopeful that we can still turn it around in time to enjoy a sandwich in another 50 years.
