Like weather, difficult emotions can’t be avoided. The right tools and habits – like good riding gear – are a necessity. It may even be possible to enjoy rough internal weather.

Greenwashing ads. (Because if you want to make dirty money, it’s best to lie about it on the way down) “UK’s media watchdog the Advertising Standards Authority banned the ad from being broadcast stating that ExxonMobil’s claim on liquefied natural gas as one of the world’s cleanest fuel is misleading.” Fracking is fun!
