In all honesty, what are we supposed to do? We are the problem… Often when I go into stores these days, I don’t think about what I would enjoy buying, or what I need to buy. I think about how every non-perishable item in the store will soon end up in a landfill somewhere. Then I think about all the other stores up and down the street full of stuff, and I wonder how we can have any chance of living sustainably. It’s overwhelming. We haven’t even identified the systems we need to transition to, to solve this existential crisis. And we aren’t having serious discussions about what to do either.
