Kurt Vonnegut died at the age of 84. His last book was a collection of biographical essays titled "A Man Without a Country." The book concludes with a poem titled "Requiem".
When the last living thing has died on account of us, how poetical it would be if Earth could say, in a voice floating up, perhaps from the floor of the Grand Canyon, "It is done." People did not like it here.
Thanks to Bill M. for this!

"The issues that confront us may seem so huge, so complicated, so difficult to deal with that it's hard to believe that anything we can do will have a meaningful impact. But there are a lot of us in the world. A lot of people doing a lot of little things could have a huge impact. And by doing something, we are also demonstrating that lots of people really do care." - Michael Norton in 365 Ways to Change the World
