“Our power comes from protecting what we love – love of place, love of life, people, animals, nature, all of life on this beautiful planet Earth. And I would say for the entrepreneurs amongst us, it also is about our love of business. Business has been corrupted as an instrument of greed rather than one of service to the common good, yet we know that business is beautiful when we put our creativity and care into producing a product or service that our community really needs.”
The nature of nature is change – and at times it revs into fast-forward. As we navigate the onset of climate change, we’re witnessing the rapid obsolescence of the human systems we built on the assumption of cheap oil. The clock is running out on expensive (and vulnerable) practices such as the long-distance, fossil-fueled global supply chains that transport the average bite of our food 1,200 miles to reach our plates.
Inevitably communities are starting to move toward a greater re-localization of such basics as food, energy, and water. And that makes sense because that’s how nature is organized.
