The haunting line that continues to echo in my mind from teen climate activist Greta Thunberg’s provocative speech to the United Nations is, “We are in the beginning of a mass extinction, and all you can talk about is money and fairy tales of eternal economic growth. How dare you!”
I can’t help but wonder how those thunderous words of woe matter here where we live, work, live lives of faith and of good conscience, recreate, celebrate life and retire.
