"Only by altering our habits, and by endeavouring to live less exploitatively, can we prevent the changes to the environment from becoming an unparalleled catastrophe, another Great Dying. (...) People are understandably worried that it might lower our quality of life in the short term, and involve some personal and societal effort." Yet, "without our action at the level of community, of the nation, of the globe, we will certainly suffer even more. (...) we must enter into a more mutualistic relationship with our global environment. Only then can we preserve not just their infinite variety, but also our place within them" and "we too will live in hope." Thomas Halliday (2022). Otherlands: A World in the Making.
