I’m realizing that we simply cannot count on our leaders to do it all – or for that matter, to do much at all.  Although I think things must change at a very basic institutional level, and therefore we must keep pressuring governments to act, we can’t wait for that.  There are things we all can, and must, do – now.  I am pretty damned sure that it is in our best interest to do so, in the most fundamental way.  20-50 years from now, will our actions be forgiveable?
