The total amount of suffering per year in the natural world is beyond all decent contemplation.

自然界中每年的痛苦总量超出了所有体面的思考。在我写这句话的一分钟内,成千上万的动物被活生生地吃掉,许多其他动物在逃命,因恐惧而呜咽,其他动物则被寄生虫从内部慢慢吞噬,成千上万的动物因饥饿、口渴和疾病而死亡。
我不追逐,我吸引。
我们必须倾听科学的声音,并采取紧急行动应对全球能源挑战。
我不在乎是否合群。
"Resilience is built through overcoming challenges."

Words have the power to heal the wounds that reality inflicts.
