this:
'The climate crisis also offers us the chance to experience what very few generations in history have had the privilege of knowing: a generational mission; the exhilaration of a compelling moral purpose; a shared and unifying cause; the thrill of being forced by
circumstances to put aside the pettiness and conflict that so often stifle the restless human need for transcendence….'
If only it were so...
