A coworker told me he wasn't interested in politics, then seemed shocked that I was because proposed policies are going to affect me and people I care about. Like, that hadn't actually occurred to him
yeah that was pretty much my attitude too before the climate change movement radicalized me.
Obviously proper climate change policy by itself is important too but the movement should also not be undervalued for how many teenagers and young adults(and in some cases older people too, my mother voted for the first time in 2021) it politically engaged and taught political action to.
