My comment has 2 parts
1) this makes a mockery of government contracts
2) your actions make it clear that you do not understand the consequences of inaction at this moment in the history of life on earth

I think these are both obvious and do not need more discussion. Cancelling government contracts unilaterally will make it much more difficult for government action to have impact. "I'm not gonna fall for that! the next government will just reverse it and I will be left with a white elephant!"

This is your watch. I am doing what I can for life on earth. You are responsible for the regulatory framework that provides incentives for people and organizations to work together to mitigate the tremendous risks of climate catastrophe... risks that are more complicated than most people are able to grasp. It is your responsibility to either understand fully (not in your capability... you are not a climate scientist are you?) or invoke the precautionary principle. This is not your world to squander. You are only elected for 4 years.

I wrote this poem. Maybe read it and get some idea that this is not a video game.

I Witness

the horror runs through my arms and legs
the ache fills my heart
the reality fills my mind
the finality pulls my gut
as the mass extinction ticks onward
largely unacknowledged and unnoticed
the tremendous specialty of form and of life
unappreciated
gasping in the loneliness of last pairings
doomed and hopeless
habitat consumed by unsustainable food and junk
hopeless and final in a way we do not conceive
not just death, but death of species, of kind
termination of lines of being
the final end of the rise from the muck
the endless creation that brought animation to matter
the interplay of mutually sustaining diversity
the dance of procreation
dying
while we decorate the packaging of our wasteful crap with their images
tasting not, feeling not, seeing not, living barely
and watch a horror movie to feel something
while failing to notice the life that yet is
in its intricate and living beauty
dying at our hand, utterly squandered

I witness
unshrinking
open heart experiencing
the “Sixth Mass Biological Extinction Event”
