"rereading as a read-aloud to partner who has only seen the movie. what the hell is the horrific fatphobic crap in the introduction? fictionalized William Goldman is a horrific beast to his son. ironically for a book about the reader skipping the bits that suck, I absolutely skipped over the gnarly gross comments about his son's weight. what the hell. unnecessary to the plot and really unkind."

Naomi Klein
“The very idea that we, as atomized individuals, even lots of atomized individuals, could play a significant part in stabilizing the planet's climate system or changing the global economy is objectively nuts. We can only meet this tremendous challenge together, as part of a massive and organized global movement.”
Naomi Klein, On Fire: The Case for the Green New Deal

“We are about to sacrifice our civilization for the opportunity of a very small number of people to continue to make enormous amounts of money. We are about to sacrifice the biosphere so that rich people in countries like mine can live in luxury. But it is the sufferings of the many which pay for the luxuries of the few.”
Greta Thunberg, No One Is Too Small to Make a Difference

Jonathan Safran Foer
“Yes, there are constraints on our actions, conventions and structural injustices that set the parameters of possibility. Our free will is not omnipotent – we can't do whatever we want. But, as Scranton says, we are free to choose from possible options. And one of our options is to make environmentally conscientious choices. It doesn't require breaking the laws of physics–or even electing a green president–to select something plant-based from a menu or at the grocery store. And although it may be a neoliberal myth that individual decisions have ultimate power, it is a defeatist myth that individual decisions have no power at all. Both macro and micro actions have power, and when it comes to mitigating our planetary destruction, it is unethical to dismiss either, or to proclaim that because the large cannot be achieved, the small should not be attempted.”
Jonathan Safran Foer, We Are the Weather: Saving the Planet Begins at Breakfast

Heather  Marsh
“Providing free streets for vehicles and charging for public transit is taxing the necessities of the poor for the autogenocidal luxuries of the wealthy.”
Heather Marsh, The Creation of Me, Them and Us

Frank Patrick Herbert
“The thing the ecologically illiterate don’t understand about an ecosystems is that it is a system…that’s why the highest function of ecology is the understanding of consequences.”
Frank Herbert, Dune
