Time to lobby MPs and make some noise. Let them know how you feel.

Time to ditch the FF cars. Use public transport or get EVs or drastically scale down your car/fuel usage. Stop dropping off kids at school!!!

Time to get solar panels, water tanks. So whatever you personally can.

Time to accept YOU CANNOT KEEP LIVING THE WAY YOU ALWAYS HAVE. It has to be uncomfortable to work.
