Yes, we can always blame multilateral and bilateral organizations, governments, and corporations. But in the end, as residents of shared communities, it all boils down to awareness. That’s why I believe in advocacies and all other movements that promote awareness and social action.

P.S. It’s good that you’re among those people who see things on a rather positive note.
