I fear for our democracy.

There's only one chance and one life to count for something. And my faith tells me, or my faith demands, that I use whatever I have whenever I can, to make a difference in people's lives.

All of us must learn to waste less energy.

Without immediate action, we are at genuine risk of civil conflict and losing our precious democracy.
