She addresses the question of “What Could Possibly Go Right?” with thoughts including:
- “Soldiering on through times of profound ecological angst” to make our positive contributions
- The importance of surrounding ourselves with “wonderful people… that are like-minded in their determination to make that positive future, that kinder, wiser, more humble, more sustainable civilization ahead happen.”
- That “these times call upon us to be the best kind of person that we can be” and “to bring out our most profound humanity”.
