I've given up for the most part. I fought and fought and fought and now it's just too late, although I still reflexively continue to fight sometimes. We've passed the tipping point now. Even if we did the maximum, we can't go back now, the earth can't go back now. People don't understand, it's not a reversible path. It's like a piece of elastic. You gain a LOT of weight, then you say, "Oh no, I better eat right, exercise and lose weight". So you lose weight, but the elastic waist band has been stretched past its limit and it will never just pop back into place. It's broken now. Atmospheric and oceanic currents, ice sheets, thermal and haline and nutrient gradients - they dont just snap back to their former conditions. So I am just prepping like crazy to ease my exit from the h3ll-hole the earth will become, and praying for my grandchildren and what they will have to deal with; not knowing for myself if the human species will even survive. I won't ask for forgiveness from them. My generation doesn't deserve it in light of the mess we left them with and our refusal to do anything substantial about it or make real changes.
