Hello SUV drivers, politicians, fossil addicts, fossil earners, conspiracy believers, people in waiting, finger-pointing, hedonists, deniers, non-competents, neighbors, fellow human beings, property owners, voters, citizens,

Hello father*in, mother*in, daughter*in, son*in, grandchild*in.

What are you waiting for? Where are you hesitating? Do you think you can’t change anything? None of this would have anything to do with you? Not with your future, your children, your grandchildren?

Get your ass up!

The scientific community agrees. The groundwater is already down. Species are dead. It is warmer all over the world. How many species, forests will die, areas will be sealed, how many coasts will sink, people will flee from the climate, die due to the climate? How much exploitation remains, how many viruses still come from zoonoses, how hot will it get?

Get your ass up!

Where are your potentials, your activities for change to save the world, from global warming, from species extinction, from dependence on dictators?

Get your ass up!

There is much to do on the way to a world fit for grandchildren. Big changes, personal, neighborhood, friends, like-minded, community, regional, national and global. We are too slow so far. We need a dynamic that we don’t have today.

Get ass up

The sooner we get to it, the easier the strenuous adjustments will be. Timely action is more beneficial than procrastination. Assume that much will change. Go for it, use your potentials, apply the energy saving tips, find out online your CO2 and your footprint, eat more vegetables and less meat, repair things instead of buying new, spend vacations flying less, buy solar, vote for the most climate active party, go to the streets for these changes, join with people for change.

Get your ass up!

You may get restlessness, but maybe inner peace because you found it, fun, depth, satisfaction, good conscience, focus on the essentials, save money. Your long-term thinking pays off. Be active, experiment, compromise.

Get your ass up!
