That is helpful; thanks. I think in my text I was able to make it clear that sustainability is largely a human concern/duty while leaving it open that an ecosystem has non-human sustainability factors to consider (just out of scope for this lesson.)

That is 100% my current career mantra/goal

And this, of course, is "first 100 days" type important stuff for the new NSA director. Root out the dirty talk!

I watched it years and years ago, late night, on Kirkwood public access, very grainy. I felt really proletarian.
