The political (and corporate and actual meteorological) climate here in the USA right now just makes me sick to my stomach. As much as I would love to have hope that we can eventually come to our senses and elect some decent human beings to be put into office to help make positive changes, I now have the tendency to believe that you are 100 percent dead on in that we have to make our own changes as individuals. Little by little I keep trying to change my habits and even more so my mindset to at least do my tiny part to turn the tide.
