Hello everybody!! Welcome to this weeks QOTW awards post!!

I'm feeling very blessed to be here and to have the honour to read through all the beautiful content.

Thank you so much @eco-alex! What a great question!!

Such an huge response from people and some really amazing posts. Thank you so much to everyone who posted to the eco-train community we love you!

I really love this question and I think its a good question for now, when we are living through a global pandemic... and have been for while now.

For I me I think as time goes by we become more and more compliant and I really this this needs to be addressed. Why are we not standing up for ourselves? For our basic human rights?

Why are we still abusing our environment and cutting down the rainforest?

This is a really powerful question and I think most people have something to say.. unfortunately I can only pick 5.

A big congratulations to this weeks winners! A big thank you to @jaydr for sharing your beautiful song with us.

🌍ECOTRAIN QOTW 8.4: IF NOT YOU THEN WHO || AN ORIGINAL SONG BY JAYDR

This is my first Ecotrain question of the week to participate in and I seem to be doing it just the way I was inspired to. A song.

This song "if not you" was dropped in my mind while I was reading the prompt post. I was gonna turn it into a poem or a write up but as a song writer I know when a song comes and well not to cover it. This one came with all its package.

Let the change start from us and from now ! / ecoTrain qotw

At present our thinking has become such that we do not want to do anything on our own. Rather I hope someone else will start. Our thinking has become such that why should we? There is so much more to do! Be it any work for state development or public welfare starting from climate change. Other than that there is another thought, now is not the time to do it. We've been hand in hand for a long time. But to be honest, that time is no longer ours.

My answer to the EcoTrain Question of the Week.

These are hard questions to answer and somehow seem related to me to the question, “What’s the problem really?” I think that we tend to rationalize away a lot of problems by making them seem less of an issue than they are, or we ignore problems that are very important.

If somehow we don’t identify something as a problem we don’t feel as bad about our own role in causing the problem or our lack of help to fix things. Really understanding the scope of the suffering and problems in the world can be overwhelming.

In The Land Of Costra. In The Kingdom of Ibisa, there lived A Mighty King. King Bankole the III. He was famous for his victory in the battle of the skull seven years ago. The battle was so intense that even after seven years, the kingdom has been unable to fix all the damages incurred in the battle.

The king had A pretty daughter. Anna A beautiful lady with an angelic smile. Her skin glowed like the sun. Her eyes dazzled like the bright stars. She was indeed an epitome of beauty.

If Not You Then Who? If Not Now Then When?

This week, we're asked to think about what it is in humans that stops us from acting in our own best interest against the big problems humanity faces. It is an interesting topic. An important topic. One with probably many answers and even more questions. I am far from an expert, but I'll try to give my two cents on this topic.

A few of our current, major problems stand out: the COVID virus and climate change. One a short-term problem that hurts us every day, the other a long-term problem not all of us notice in our every day lives.
