We still cling with parts of our minds to the infantile belief that the world was made for our gratification and pleasure. And we combine this narcissism with an assumption of our own immortality, Boris Johnson, U.K. Prime Minister, via NPR.

NPR points out that supporting the fight against climate change is a somewhat new position for Johnson.
In previous years, he supported
those who deny a link between
human activity and climate change.
Recently, Johnson had been asked to defend his newly-appointed trade secretary, who called climate change scientists, "doom-mongers" and "fanatics.".
Johnson has even acknowledged that
some of his own statements were not, "entirely supportive of the current struggle.".
According to 'The Guardian,' Johnson said, , "Facts change, and people change their minds."
