The current adult generations don't comprehend that they're sacrificing the children' future (and thus, the children) in order to maintain their Business As Usual lifestyle and dreams of being rich. It's all "what about me tho?", "it's someone else's problem", "it wasn't me!" All of this is very easy to do. It's like stealing candy potable water from a baby.

We planted trees as kids in the 80s. Didn't just plant them either. We kept going back every year to check on the trees. We made sure that 10 trees for every kid in our school made it to 5 years before we stopped replanting that tree. Over the years I must have planted at least 50-100 trees. I wish it felt like it did anything.
