If we don't start actually acknowledging the truth to each-other we cannot possibly hope to marshal the resources and the political will required to build systems to make the world sustainable.

@GeoffGlave @cdemwell well, currently fathering 2 specimens 17 months apart, still under 3yo, I'm not sure I've passed the hump where this statement is true. One seemed super easy to deal with, in retrospect. Two is not a 2x multiplier, but still.
