I love this time of year, as we move from darkness to light, coming out of a period of reflection to one of action. And more and more people are acting in efforts to avert the ecological collapse that we face, one brought about by both a careless and a callous disregard for the health of the ecosystems on Earth that sustain all life. We need to act on multiple levels to avert this crisis and to bring about the (re)emergence of human value systems that prioritise people and planet, not profits.
