Annelise, your pain is deeply felt, and it echoes the frustrations of many who see the world slipping through our fingers. It’s hard to witness, harder still to understand why we keep moving in the wrong direction when the signs are so clear. But it’s precisely this awareness that makes our voices and actions all the more crucial. We may not be able to stop all the damage, but together, we can fight to protect what’s left and push for a world where this kind of destruction is no longer the norm.
