With many organizations now putting out lengthy lists of “good news stories” I have the impression of a rapidly mobilizing, empowered citizenry. It’s like spring has arrived; there is new life shooting up everywhere around us! I selected just a few examples. Can’t celebrate if we don’t know about them! 1. 2014-04-17 Monsanto and Big Food […]

More than 100,000 people are watching the video every day. http://on.ted.com/j07uc Just watch the video, if you haven’t already. If you have time for more, read on.
