Let's be ecologically responsible.

 I want to live on this planet for several more decades. I assume my friends and their kids and my kids when I have them, and their kids, and all those other kids on the other side of the world do too. I'd appreciate it if our elected officials didn't vote against my and your own self interest when it comes to creating a biosphere that allows us to breathe, and eat and drink clean water. Those other animals and trees some people say they don't care about pollinate your food, keep diseases in check, make people happier when they see them, combat anxiety, protect against flooding and storm surges, provide shelter, inspiration, and filter water. And without these things, you can't have the energy that powers your home, the bricks or lumber that built your house or the textiles that clothe you. Don't act like you don't care. If you don't care about those things, you can't survive.
