Boost
Sometimes, we need a boost – of energy, of encouragement, of hope. Joe Biden’s election as the new US President is just such a boost, at least for those of us working on issues of social justice, climate change and sustainability more generally. When we get these boosts, we need to take the energy ‘power-up’ and redouble our efforts, keep fighting the good fight, amplify our optimism and spread the positive changes. It’s not that we believe Biden’s leadership will solve all our problems, or even meet our expectations. Rather, it’s that the possibilities for progress just opened up again.
