Lakoff
a defining moral issue
climate change
yet, framed to fuel
nice thoughts of what just happens
waving palm trees
like there is no human agency left
we caused global warming
and we should be scared
a defining moral issue
climate change
yet, framed to fuel
nice thoughts of what just happens
waving palm trees
like there is no human agency left
we caused global warming
and we should be scared
