loveliest short spot on sustainability since the term was coined, thanks George!!
+Christopher LeBlanc Thank you! And funnily enough the word 'sustainability' was first coined here at the RSA - everything's coming full circle!
+The RSA Citation needed.
+The RSA that's interesting, as I was thinking of Gro Harlem Bruntland's "Our Common Future" UN commission report from 1987 that first fleshed out for me the concept of "... a model output that represents a world system that is sustainable without sudden and uncontrolled collapse and capable of satisfying the basic material requirements of all of its people."[4] , from the Club of Rome's "Limits to Growth" published 15 years earlier in 1972.
Love it!

Katie's artwork reminds of a well known american illustrator of the 1960's Saul Bellow?, I shall have to do some homework, but that is praise not criticism. Clearly mightier than the sword. Calligraphy for cartoons?
Loved it, simple and effective 👏😊
True.

Gorwellianism
Al Gore is my shepherd, I shall not think.
He maketh me lie down in Greenzi pastures:
He leadeth me beside his still-freezing waters.
He selleth my soul for CO2:
He leadeth me in his path of his self-righteousness for his own sake.
And yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of reason,
I will fear all logic: for thou art with me and thinking for me;
Thy Gore’s family oil fortune and thy 10,000 square Gorey foot mansion, they comfort me.
Thou preparest a movie in the presence of contradictory evidence:
Thou anointest mine head with nonsense; my mindless conformity runneth over.
Surely blind faith and hysteria shall follow me all the days of the rest of my life:
and I will dwell in the house of ALGORE forever.
-Paul Merrifield 1990
