Too Many Sacrifices to Make

I feel like Squarzoni is reading my mind and asking the exact same questions I have such as “Am I irreproachable? Am I always consistent in my own actions?, I don’t see why I should be the one who deprives myself?” From the time we have begun talking about the issue of climate change, I have been trying to modify my behavior and criticize others on their non-environmentally friendly actions but am I perfect in my own approach of dealing with climate change? Of course not! I am not willing to sacrifice all the comforts of my life to save Earth because I have to live my life and that is what Squarzoni is debating about in his head when he talks about either going on the trip or not. His girlfriend is like a therapist who shows him an easy way out and tries to keep things light and less stressful. She tries to convince him that his cancellation of the trip won’t change other people’s mind because people just don’t care about “global warming” and I agree with her to a great extent because even if they do care, they can’t just change every single thing in their life because every aspect of our life now includes technology that requires energy. Are we willing to give up our cars, iphones, macbooks, foreign trips and even the daily hot showers? The answer is certainly “NO”.  This just seems IMPOSSIBLE!
