As we spectate, numbly, consumers only, of spectacle, as the world, and all life, dies out all around us.
The walkout these kids did is, and should be, truly inspiring. It shows us what can be done with taking direct, peaceful, action. Action we better all be contemplating very soon or there'll be nothing left truly worth moving.
