I'm so sorry about the loss of Jimmy! My condolences. 🐾
Though I wouldn't call myself an environmental activist, I'm definitely a conservationist. I'm a big believer in nurturing land and decreasing the use toxic chemicals. I spent a year doing an organic urban farming apprenticeship & learned so much. For example, most larger scale organic farm vegetables are grown with blood (or feathers & feces) from animals in CAFO's, which means even organics have some traces of petroleum and other nasty things (which also means most vegetables are not vegan!). I also am interested in green-washing and how some environmental solutions actually cause more damage to the earth and people.
I look forward to reading your tales from beyond the grid and hope this Substack Go program will help you reestablish your voice in this space.
