The one thing I feel is very hopeful, however, is the overwhelming participation of women in the movement for change.

All those hours exploring the great outdoors made me more resilient and confident.

Other things, like capitalism, free enterprise, the economy, currency, the market, are not forces of nature, we invented them. They are not immutable and we can change them.

It's time we stopped ignoring the environment. Let's not let another election go by without making this a high priority.

Over and over, we hear politicians say they can't spend our tax dollars on environmental protection when the economy is so fragile.

When I was a kid, being outside was the norm. Rain or shine, our parents would tell us to get out of the house.

The human brain now holds the key to our future. We have to recall the image of the planet from outer space: a single entity in which air, water, and continents are interconnected. That is our home.
