Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

Ah yes, another fact filled, detailed, accurate, doomer pearl of wisdom.
At least it's a short style, unlike the bloviating of, say, Shorty.

Bloviating, what a great word, I learned something today. Thanks
On the other hand; topsoil loss, Dead Zones, global warming, negative interest rates, migrating populations, and economic instability lend credence to ralfy's claim. Not saying there aren't simple solutions to all of these, just they probably will not be implemented.

If they can just chalk up a win then they can feel like they are special, that they "matter" rather than just going through the usual drudgery of the daily grind.
