This was great! I liked the baseball analogy, putting it in terms more people can understand always helps. Climate change is a real thing and the biggest part that I think gets missed is that the planet will still be here. Like people say it's been hot and cold before. But when it gets drastic the living things on the planet don't make it, the rock itself will keep spinning through space whether we and the animals survive or not. If we want to keep living on Earth, addressing climate change is much needed.

Thanks, Sarah! I think it's so important that we take a step back and try to explain things in ways that people understand. Living in Denmark, it's been interesting to see how climate change + sustainability have been taught in schools (for decades!) so the population mostly has a shared understanding of the crisis and the action plan. In the US, we've never had that, we also have a very conspiratorial society that doesn't have much trust in government, so it's really hard to get everyone on the same page with something like Climate Change. It's not impossible --- it's just going to take many conversations ♥
