Reinvent to Green
If I could un-invent something, it would be carbon emissions. I’d take the brightest minds in eco-friendly methods today and go back to the beginning of our folly. I’d teach our ancestors how to better set us up for the future. Teach them the importance of all life on the planet, how much we needContinue reading “Reinvent to Green”
