Waiting for skeptics to come around naturally competes with the urgency of the changes we must make.
We can’t afford to outlast resistance. The climate crisis, animal suffering, and health challenges won’t wait for everyone to get comfortable with change.
But we also can’t ignore skeptics entirely. We need to create enough tension to drive change while building bridges that make transition possible.
Of course, we must not focus on winning a waiting game but on finding ways to accelerate change while amplifying our cause.
Time is running out, but transformation still needs a path forward.
