@urlyman Sympathise - v enjoyable stay at field studies centre in lovely location; near-disbelief that we genuinely didn't want a lift in private car back to the train station (a gorgeous 50-minute walk away) or that posters about sustainable food choices were undermined by the mass of single-use plastic and continued normalisation of meat and dairy consumption. (Someone told me in good faith of their shock at low levels of recycling in Italy. They'd flown there for a holiday.) #moanover
I posted about not flying last week and got unexpectedly large agreement/endorsement and I thank every one of you for it.
Nonetheless, in day to day life I feel so alone in my stance. And I remained silent about it in a conversation last night that left me feeling really quite sad about just how disinterested most people are in the fabric of the rest of their lives. It’ll be in tatters and they’ll have helped shred it willingly.
The disconnect is vast
