@susankayequinn the other thing that is optimistic about this and brings me joy: the difference here is not working harder or spending more money, it’s caring, and knowing, and thinking. “We just have to try” says that too, it’s so true. Things we should value.

@susankayequinn Reminds me of farmers near small/midsized cities in the US Midwest opposing wind turbines:
They could lease the land the turbine stands on for far more than the price of the crops that would grow on the tiny footprint, and still have a large field to keep farming those crops. Win/win.
But would oppose, because they were close enough to an urban area, they were hoping to sell the field to a property developer to build suburban sprawls of houses.
Turbines would force that land to stay a farm forever and not a one time huge cash payout. -
