just read from the middle to the end. its pretty great.
YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!
These are my highlights:
we'd need to change as dramatically as our lightbulbs. We'd need to see ourselves differently—identity and desire would have to shift. Not out of a sense of idealism or asceticism or nostalgia for the '60s. Out of a sense of pure pragmatism.
the percentage of Americans who consider themselves "very happy" with their lives has remained steady, even though the material standard of living has nearly tripled in the same period. More stuff is not making us happier—but we can't break out of the cycle that offers more stuff as our only real goal.
This is God's world," they said, which is a shocking idea for a culture that's come to think of everything as ours.
We don't need to erase individualism; it is one of the glories of the American character. But environmentalists desperately need to learn how to celebrate community, too.
I want to change as dramatically as a light bulb to a deeper shade of green...
