I love this! I also vacillate between “no ethical consumption” and “walk and chew gum,” especially around environmental issues. Like I know we’ve really gotta take down the fossil fuel industry but I’m also gonna keep recycling in the meantime. I know recycling won’t save the planet, but I think it’s good practice for the sustainable future we need to create. That’s what I tell myself anyway!

Thank you Tara! That is a perfect example!
This is such an excellent articulation of almost every day dilemmas. Thank you for writing this!
