I'm 57 years old and I'm angry. I'm angry at myself because I've been sleeping for too long. This morning I woke-up and saw the world around me fighting.

Fighting for justice, fighting for their right (whatever that may be), fighting for religion and freedom of choice, fighting for their life's.

Furthermore I noticed something else had changed, Our planet is not the same anymore, half of the forest is gone and temperatures are rising.

I'm angry because I was a-sleep and didn't do anything to stop it.

I'm angry because I found out; I'm not the only one who fell asleep.

I'm so angry. A world full of sleepers and fighters, nobody seems to perceive what's going on.

I’m angry because we give the job of saving the lives of millions of people (who will die because of global warming) to volunteers and children. I'm going to change that.

I’m angry, you should be angry too.
