A Better Planet

From Clint Eastwood: People say that we must leave a better planet to our children.  The truth is that we must leave better children to our planet.

I would say that both are true.  Of course, as a true right-winger, Eastwood doesn’t believe in things like climate change mitigation or environmental stewardship in general.  That level of ignorance is, simply, a shame.

But he’s certainly right about better children.  I hope in earnest that my children will turn out to be more empathetic, more involved, and tougher fighters for justice than I have been.  Of course that’s not what Eastwood meant, but who cares?
