Nate: I guess it's not surprising that any good climate news would be used to perpetuate wealth accumulation. Yes, I am an academic, but retired now. However, I am in touch with influential academic leaders who see, as I do, that human society everywhere needs repair, connections, hope, belonging -- in other words, that the traits of humans in evolutionary time -- up until farming when we started to believe we humans owned the earth -- our cooperation and empathy, must re-emerge. "Belonging and Othering" is a movement in higher education as is "Well Being," and these movements are gaining momentum, strong momentum, world-wide. My orientation is Rhode Island where I am trying to increase cooperation among churches, education, businesses (for-profit and non-profit) and government around resilience and net zero, to strengthen community ties, community action, as ways to respond well to the climate century. Much more to say, but I'll end here for now and thank you for such a kind response to my joining and such encouragement. Be well.
