So this is not my usual type of post by I did find it thought provoking.
Quote from the link:
By this point, I figured I’d better just keep to myself. So I got a jar out of the cafeteria and went into the woods. I got a bumblebee into the jar and put some flowers in there to keep him happy. I was poking holes in the top to let fresh air in when I was hauled off to the director again.
This time, he was really mad. He said, who did I think I was giving a “death sentence” to an innocent bee? He said I had no respect for the Earth and that it was people like me who were responsible for hurting the environment. He said I’ll be lucky if the world doesn’t end before I collect Social Security.
