Living sustainably isn't about trends, it's about habits that last. Preserving what we grow is one of the simplest ways to stay connected to nature and reduce waste.

This past Saturday, Walden and I attended the NO KINGS protests in Belfast, Maine. The park and streets were filled with friends and neighbors peacefully standing up against a wannabe dictator. Simultaneously, 7 million people gathered in 2,600 locations nationwide.

For most of history, body hair wasn't considered a problem. Then, ads began pushing a new idea—that smooth underarms were feminine and modern.

At home in Cuba, the lights stay on — not because of fossil fuels, but because of the sun and wind. More than 80% of their energy now comes from renewables.

In Cuba, a family built biodigesters with help from Biomask. But what made them powerful was the father's ingenuity — refining old designs to work better for small farms.
The result? Energy independence and "socio-ecological benefits" that ripple far beyond the farm.

In 1993, a family in Cuba began their farm. The kids were barely teenagers, the parents in their thirties.
They left behind the comforts of electricity and a familiar life, only to step straight into the country's "Special Period" — the food crisis that followed.

If one family can do it, so can millions. That's the future worth tending.

In Yugoslavia, women had rights and equality in the workplace.
Equal pay. Legal, stigma-free abortion. Infant mortality half that of the U.S., despite half the GDP.
Abortion was seen as a woman's choice — not restricted, not punished.

Reading "The Chalice and the Blade" opened my eyes.
I saw how I was part of a dominator society — men over women, humans over nature, the rich over the poor. And I didn't want to be part of that anymore. In a partnership society, you feel better every day.
