Our ecosystem is part of ourselves...it would have on the planet. Ill Earth makes ill humanity. Everything is connected.

Eating with my family, a few small...I will be going to Los Angeles For a semester this coming fall. It will be crazy! It will be hectic and I will posting a lot. (Thankfully, I will be getting a GPS because I get lost in St. Louis.
Been mulling over the following and wish for feedback or thoughts on them. 1) Wall pushups are really helping my arms.

Here's a neat article from the Washington Postmagazine about an intentional community in North Carolina where, if life is not really even close to sustainable, at least people make awareness of their energy use front and center.
