What have you done today to lower your impact?
We are washing away the foundations of our existence on every front. It is high time we move from crashing about on the planet like a bull in china shop and find a way to go forward with intent. We must find systems of living based on sustainability. The systems and tools exist, it is up to each of us to adopt them.

Who's been getting the subsidies?
Why is it we continue to subsidize corporations that earn the biggest profits in human history, are emitting greenhouse gases sure to bring an end to the ecosystem as we know it, and have taken control of our political process with massive quantities of spending on lobbyists in the halls of government? Next time you hear someone say that renewables aren't worth doing because the are not competitive without subsidies remind them of these figures.
