“The world is a living tapestry … As the weave of life is torn apart in one place, the threads unravel in another,” says author and physics professor Vandana Singh, acknowledging humanity’s interconnectedness with the planet — and the uncertain future we face if we don’t protect it. Reading an excerpt from her latest work of speculative fiction, Singh shares a hopeful vision for Earth’s renewal.

Turns out we don’t live on a ball flying through an “outer space”. Turns out our resources aren’t nearly as limited as they want you to believe. Turns out the same ppl who have lied to you your entire life are also lying to you again, crazy right.

sure just put your brain and free will and empathy and morals all into a shredder, and what will come out the other side will believe any nonsense is possible like you’re hoping for! it’s easy!
(edit to add: no video needed! unless you can’t even manage to follow this one simple line of authoritarian destructive instructions, in which case there’s no hope for you anyway, and you’ll have to get to the gullible meaningless goal you seek the long slow inevitable way of entropy, instead of the faster way you seek)

Writing whole words in capital letters is also a childish rhetoric use of telling your basic opinion.
