In HS I read RachelCarson's Silent Spring a yr after it came out.
I was at the 1st Earth Day.
For 60+ yrs we've worked to help Our Mother.
We almost made it.
Then the GOP's lust for donor💰 & control wiped out decades of hard fought wins.
A safe healthy legacy to our gkids is being destroyed in 2yrs🤬
