I care about the earth, the waters, the trees, the environment. I care about representing the countless voiceless beings and human underdogs in an age and 'top down' worldview that values unlimited growth and profit over continuation of life on earth. This online paper upholds the honesty, integrity, and values I consider essential. Telling the truth and exposing corruption in government and people in power, as well as educating people so that we can take care the places we call Home - around the Salish Sea, and all over this planet.
