"We have a collective responsibility to the planet and to the people of the world."

I keep hoping we can convert these fine lofty sentiments I see all over Substack in to tangible real world action which attempts to fulfill some of that collective responsibility.

Let us come down out of the theory clouds, plant our feet on the ground, and do something big, tangible, and specific. Not words and ideas, action. And then, once we have a system in place which does this for us automatically every month, back in to the clouds we may go.

Phil, I totally agree. We need action NOW. At age 81 there is not a lot I can do except get the word out there and vote for the people who are committed to the who are taking action and will take action. I worry about my grandchild and all the children because I fear the future.

Hi Allan, thanks for reply. I'm 72 myself. I'm attempting to offer us an easy inexpensive way we can take specific concrete action that makes a difference.

Thanks for joining! Your action may help persuade Substack management that we all wish to take action together with their assistance. If you'd like to invite your readers to participate, please do.

Put your thoughts down and take the attitude of "who cares if people agree or not."

That is brilliant. Is it ok if I use it in the future?
