I don't want to be depressing, here, but - how do you cope with it?

[Flaxbee]

I read about the booming trade for ivory trinkets in China, and the ensuing slaughter of hundreds (at least) of elephants.

That there are only 4 white rhinos left in the wild.

All of the awful, tragic, horrible things that humans do (and please don't list them so I don't fling myself off a cliff) for profit, 'beauty', or boners.

And the abuse of animals, pets, the conditions in industrial farms, medical experiments, all of it.

So - how do you cope with feelings of anger, rage, sadness and despair? Sometimes I feel like I'm going to just shatter. And I don't want to be ignorant, but the knowledge of what goes on tears me to pieces.
