I’m a boomer and I can say that my concern for the environment began when I was a kid, in Mesa Verde when I saw a person step on a great large beetle and laugh about it. I must have been about 10. Not all boomers are complete ass****s. My concern is only growing as I now have three grandchildren that I mourn for in my private moments. I am trying to instill in them a love for creatures and places

I also am a boomer, live in a senior building for the poorer folk, have a small garden where I grow cucumbers, tomatoes, a slew of herbs. This year I have added a few flowers & a lot of milkweed. I’ve introduced my 2 grandkids to gardens , insects, birds and definitely squirrels & fox. I try to do my part

I have a 19-year-old, and this is 100% spot on. I weep for him, his generation, and the absolute lack of care that MOST Americans seem to have about the wreckage we've made of the environment. My Boomer "friends" are even worse, and say stupid sh*t like, "Oh, I have such hope for their generation, I know they'll fix it!"... b*tch, YOU started this and YOU messed it up for GenX and everyone else below us. YOU won't even recycle, let alone demand a reduction in fossil fuel usage, and/or support political candidates that will actually enact policies that stop pollution, and promote clean air, water, etc. In fact, the candidates they've voted for, and continue to vote for, are actively working to undo the EPA and climate change policy in general. So yeah. What the hell does my kid have to hope for, or look forward to? NOT ONE THING.

Republicans are hypocrites who say one thing in public if it serves their purposes but actually believe and act on their own self interests 100% of the time. If in that process their actions happen to benefit the less fortunate, that’s some sort of miracle.

Don't pretend you care about kids when you're taking school lunches out of their mouths. Don't pretend you care about farmers when you're deporting all their workers to concentration camps. And don't pretend you give a shit about women when you've taken away their wombs and want to take away their vote and independence as well. All you care about is white men wearing dollar signs! Go fuck yourselves!!!

Let’s add to that list - Netanyahu, Putin, Xi Jinping, any world “leader” who is spending time and money bombing, starving, frightening, torturing, disappearing people and not a dime on floods, fires, famine, wind, hurricanes, melting glaciers, rising temperatures, animal extinction. The Earth does not give a shit about our differences or our inhumane treatment of each other. It will continue to warn us until it doesn’t.

I’d say don’t pretend you care about the environment if you support mass migration. The developed world is energy intensive. Mass numbers of people moving to the US and Europe takes people with very low carbon footprint and impacts on the environment and makes them mass consumers of energy and materials. Not to mention the environmental devastation of large caravans or pollution of ships transporting people. Also it relieves population pressures in their home country which enables overpopulation to continue instead of naturally course-correcting. Immigration is the enemy of the environment and will overwhelm our planet. The US is already at nearly 400 million people, how much higher should we go with an American lifestyle??
