Good rant, but any replies should go to another list than Cuis-Dev.<br>
<br>
My personal strategy has always been to start where I am and work <br>
outward through my sphere of influence. I can't fix the world, but I <br>
can try my best to do the right thing, set an example, and try to be <br>
nice to people.<br>
<br>
Personally, my wife and I looked at the demographics in the late '70s <br>
and decided the world was not suffering from a lack of people, so no <br>
kids. We have not been on an airplane in a couple of decades. Net Zero <br>
house. Vegan. Garden for wildlife as well as ourselves. Not saints, <br>
but we know which end of the scale is best and try to move in that <br>
direction. Align actions with belief. Walk in beauty.<br>
<br>
Be less bad! Do more Cuis!<br>
<br>
Hey, I had to mention Cuis here, somewhere! ;^)<br>
<br>
Good on ya,<br>
