This morning I read on Miraz' blog that 91% of New Zealand's birds and 35% of its marine mammals are endangered due to climate change. Those statistics are frightening.
I wanted to leave a comment on her post, but felt I had way more than 300 characters to say. I could write pages criticizing people, politicians, religious institutions and the meat industry... I could write an essay on my frustration at the generalized inaction. It's not like we are waiting for something to happen in a distant science-fiction future, 800 years from now. It is happening already, everywhere. It's been happening for a long time.
I could spend hours complaining, but instead I'll just talk a bit about my hometown. Thank you @Miraz for the inspiration for this blog post!
