All stick and no carrot
I know this lovely planet is suffering at the hands of my fellow idiot humans. I know which changes I can make to my life to allegedly have a role in slowing or preventing this suffering.
I find the difficulty is in maintaining these changes to my life.
In practice, leading an ethically sound life is not rewarding. I often feel like while I am accidentally pouring beer dregs down my legs on a tuesday morning in attempt to do the recycling, some sucker across town is undoing all my work.
