May all beings be happy
All beings without exception
Weak or strong, omitting none
Great or mighty, seen & unseen
Near & far
Born or yet unborn
May all beings be happy
Let no one deceive another
Or despise anyone anywhere
Or in anger wish another harm

For my WIP, my MC's ethics are ... checkered. On the one hand, Waley is a healer, on the other hand she steals, can be quite mean, and lies her head off. Of course eventually it all collapses.

Greetings, #NovemberWorldbuilders. Tell me about the ethics of your MC or any character who is important in your world's lore. Are they morally good? Morally grey? Do they have a belief contrary to what others around them believe in? Are there any acts they refuse to do?

What is the origin & evidence for the idea that if one country does not export fossil fuels, demand will be met by another? What is the incentive, then, for a country to reduce exports & what is this unique feature of international markets? How come the argument isn't made for domestic supplies?
