Do you ever stop and think that we only the know the 3 year time course of covid-19 infection and that beyond that is unknown territory?

Or that we don't really know how bodies full of microplastics will age?
Or wonder about the ripples if the shells of billions of tiny creatures in the ocean dissolve away?
Everywhere I look there's fragility & vulnerability (part of life) and a bleak horizon of newly created risks (doesn't have to be part of life).
Anyway, today would be a good day for the #PrecautionaryPrinciple.
Someone in mom voice needs to ask this industrial growth society if it's considered what could happen if it keeps running with sharp pointed sticks.

There is a lot to be done, but somehow we need to do it more flexibly and with more grace for each other. At least that's my reflection on 2023 so far, as a project manager. A lot of people are not ok, health-wise, emotionally, relationship-wise.
Some are in the thick of atmospheric rivers or digging out of record snow or, or, or.....
And, given our web of connections, for every one struggling many more are worried for them.
