Indeed, if you were to write a thesis on why Don’t Look Up didn’t work for me, you might well call it ‘Don’t Talk Down’. Increasingly, I feel one of Don’t Look Up’s major problems was timing. Don’t Look Up’s central conceit was that the prospect of an impact in six months should be enough to get The Powers That Be to take it seriously. The problem is I don’t quite know what to do with that information, let alone to fix the problem as an individual. I want to be clear that individual responsibility is a key component in whatever action we take against climate change.
