"I think we Millenials are, more than any generation before us, desperately in search of our great cause."

Look no further, there's a global crisis of climate change that must be solved. We have a cause, but unfortunately not one that is nicely contained within the borders of a country.

Indeed. We're the ones to face the grandest causes - fixing the climate, killing the death itself, spreading human life to the rest of the Solar System. And only handful of geeks care. Most of the world seems to be busy with celebrity gossip or complaining about 1% or inventing new reasons to get outraged about something.

One is entertainment, the other ends in violent revolution. I suspect we can't fix the climate until we fix inequality because its the 1% that profits from climate destruction yet holds the power of regulation.
