Scott Hardin-Nieri 10/11/2018 5:35 PMGreat conversations the last two days with amazing people who are working to change the world for better. However, I am a bit distracted from my work with grief after reading some of the the latest UN Climate Reports. I am grateful to be sharing in this experience with all 14985 of tenaciously creative eco collaborators. -
