Do you believe we're now in a global emergency?

Without question.

What does climate change mean to you?

To me it means most of the bio-mass on earth will likely be unable to adapt at the rate the environment degrades and therefore become extinct. I think scientists are aware of this but don't really want to create a panic, but a panic may help motivate the elites to allow a drastic change.

What does peace mean to you?

Peace is a state of harmony with everything in the universe (like all other species besides us), and specifically with your own peers.

What does community mean to you?

Community is the interaction between people in the localized areas where they live and work, and the sense of belonging that accompanies.
Community is what we are rapidly losing. The philosophy of Ayn Rand seems to be in overdrive these days and, combined with the disconnecting connections with our technology, the natural ways of association are disappearing.

What does politics mean to you?

A horrid means for others to assert power and influence over others.

What does money mean to you?

Money is a medium of exchanging labor for goods, and because of it's importance for survival, it can affect greatly affect people psychologically in positive and negative ways.

What makes you truly happy?

Other living things, my cat in particular, and being out side surrounded by nature, especially if it's Arizona! Oh, and writing too.
