Feeling a mix of emotions that Just Stop Oil are hanging up their high-vis vests.

Le Monde · South Korea wildfires kill at least 16 people and are causing 'unprecedented damage'By Le Monde with AP and AFP

"...there is a spectrum of engagement... while continuing to participate in a system that they intellectually understand is unsustainable and self-destructive AND is also essential to their livelihoods and immediate wellbeing.
