This year, as every year, there was the World Ocean Day with an online conference in which everyone could participate.
What was presented there was thought-provoking and full of potential. Scientists described what humanity will face if certain tipping points are reached, and they also presented measures on how the political systems and society can be transformed to avoid reaching these tipping points and triggering a cascade that can be reversed. This would have a positive impact on life on the entire planet!
But what can we say? It doesn't seem to be particularly important for those currently responsible in politics and business.
So no matter what we do ourselves for personal reasons, just cycling, shopping sustainably or supporting small projects that are sustainable in action or by helping out, it's just a drop in the ocean.
We do what we can here and annoy our leaders with emails, petitions, elections and whatever else is in our power.
But creatures that are only around eighty years old are probably not in a position to think ahead into the future to understand what really needs to be done to preserve a species and indeed itself.
As long as we believe that we are the crown of creation and do not want to recognise that we are only a small particle in a mega complex system, we will unfortunately fail completely in the long term. But there is hope! We can change our perspective and start thinking about the bigger picture.
It is so important to remember that the more pieces of the puzzle we remove from the whole system, the more we will affect it when the puzzle stops working.

If you're affected by extreme weather, don't cry!
It's just Mother Nature doing her thing.
If you're feeling the effects of climate change, don't fret! It's just God's way of testing us.
If you're feeling the effects of droughts, high water, and other climate-related challenges, don't worry! It's just God's way of showing us that we need to be more mindful of our impact on the planet.
Have fun with God's punishments and remember that if God does everything, he probably invented science to bring us closer to him.
As an addendum, we call him, her, it * God because we don't care what you call him exclusively.
