My Personal Favorite Read

 

kymatica --this video is long, about an hour & a half, but it is interesting. It is about religion, the earth, the self, etc. etc.... good discussions could come out of this, as well as arguments and debate. I haven't seen it in a while so I will comment further on my page once I get a chance to watch it again.-Malory Speir

Environmental_issues_in_the_People's_Republic_of_China - just a wikipedia article, but I thought it interesting to check in on what another large country is and is not doing as far as environmental sustainability. I find China especially interesting because China and the US seem to behave like siblings in this respect, with the idea that "he's not doing X, so why should I have to?".
