This is what they've done to East River Park in new York City; for the past several months-even going on a year-the city has told everybody not to worry about the 1000 trees they're killing-because they'll replace these 100-year-old trees with saplings. They expect the people to believe them, too.

This is why I've left the movement to Save East

I feel the same way with my whining about racist and sexist job postings. No impact, just making me tired.

But you are having an effect! I am so proud that you're doing that-but when it gets to be too much for you, just give it a rest.

I read the article link. Over a $BILLION and will take 5 years?! That's just insane. NYC itself would need to be boosted 8' in more areas than just a park and they aren't gonna do that.

It's disheartening, demoralizing, and depressing; but sometimes it's best to just walk away. Easier said than done.
