Hey!

Loved this. I have a mentor who likes to say that environmental problems don't exist, there are just human problems. Which implies like, we need to stop trying to manage "the environment out there" and instead adapt our human world. Its a bit of a frameshift that you touch on here, but I think its an important shift we make ASAP as to revise our need to control all that stuff out there. also like, yeah...can't manage a hurricane, an earthquake, or icestorm anyway....
