I have a shirt that I got at one of the sweat-shop clothes selling clothes shops in the town down the mountain from me that has many "re-" words on it.
One of my favorite co-workers said today that "humans are the cancer of the earth" after I told her that sea levels may rise 20 feet in the next 100 years. It's funny how bad news like that can be both depressing and unusually amusing, funny, freeing. It's sometimes good to remember that one's life can be seen as very insignificant in the vastness of things even it it remains true that your own life dominates your perceptions and experience of life in general.
I am thinking about going to DC this year (August or September) and fighting the good fight. If there are any objections to that, or recommendations, please let me know.
As always, I hope you are taking care of yourselves and gathering hugs from loved ones. There is a picture above of the trees that are always green in my town to give you peace at heart.

Hi! D.C. sounds like a good place to hangout. it's definitely gonna be a lifestyle change, and hopefully a good one. You will be exchanging bad beer for good beer, rural for urban, japan for the U.S. capital, and solitude for company. Along the same lines as your co-worker, Ed Abbey said that "growth for the sake of growth is the ideology of the cancer cell".
