Summary

This quote emphasizes the idea that every individual is responsible for the state and well-being of the planet. It rejects the notion that some people can simply be passive observers or consumers on Earth. Instead, it highlights the collective role we all have in protecting and nurturing the environment. We are not mere passengers passively waiting for someone else to take care of things, but active participants who must contribute to making Earth a sustainable and habitable place for all.

I have a need to make these sorts of connections literal sometimes, and a vehicle often helps to do that. I have a relationship to car culture. It isn't really about loving cars. It's sort of about needing them.
