Keeping our political discussion only on the level of external issues is like using topic ointment to treat stage 4 cancer. Yes, we need a Green New Deal, and we also need to address the spiritual rift between humanity and nature. The earth is not ours to dominate, but to cherish

Working on it from the K-12+College side: If we do not educate with ethics, we can't expect our culture to demonstrate them. Thank you for carrying the real conversation forward!!

That is definitely is true, but we need a lot more than political sound bites of the obvious. "Greening the world" will take hard decisions and personal sacrifices that won't happen with an overarching Leviathan or demi-god to do the work for us - regardless the political party.

It would be so wonderful to introduce this spiritual perspective into politics! We don't just need new laws - more than anything else, we need a collective shift in consciousness.

Unfortunately there is no discussion. You have a Petty POTUS and hypocritical obstructionist republicans. To discuss takes people willing to listen.

I love what you are saying and wish it could permeate more people. I will always share.
