Looking to the future

Just read this excellent piece, forwarded to me by Gordon.

For reasons stated in my earlier posts on this blog, I feel I personally need to take some action on simplicity(/global warming) and I think it's worth suggesting that Quakers collectively need to crank up the volume of their witness on this. I'd be really interested to hear from Friends who feel more or less the same, and either (a) get more involved in what's already happening and/or (b) add something fresh to the mix. I don't want to reinvent any wheels but I do think that I/we need to be in there doing something and making a (specifically Quaker) noise. What do Friends think?
