That was a powerful email Gretta. I have been thinking about the eclipse and the crowds joined together in a time of awe. Why can't we be in awe of our small planet, our places on it, how to save it, stop fearing standing up for what we know is right. One person, ,much the same as another person and yet not really the same at all. Why? Where and how we live, how we have been brought up, whether we have the basic needs to live, some not really able to live with dignity, no one to love or be loved. I have priviledge, and I do not take that for granted ,so I am involved in justice issues, locally with our migrant workers, grandmothers to grandmothers work, community care. It is a drop in the bucket. What happens if Trump gets in or Poliviere.? That is very scary. our world is very scary, very dangerous, no awe to be found yet I cannot give up. Will stop and think about dinner prep- priviledge eh? Next birthday is 90, not much time left to help with changes that must be made. katharine
Never ends. Exploitation of people or resources. Reminds me of an ancient grape boycott in which I took my fair share of abuse. All variations on a theme.
This is dispicable. Feeling a little frozen as to what to do, which cause to fight. Thankyou as usual, Gretta for highlighting this injustice. The planet needs us to act now, to be loud, to be stubborn on her behalf. Valerie

It is infuriating and ultimately tragic that corporations have so much power and independence now.
Gretta, you always get me thinking. I have had similar thoughts before and recorded some in my own blog.
