Some of the homes that have been built in the last 10 years just appall me. Why do humans need huge homes? I was born poor and I didn’t know you bought clothes at anything but the Goodwill until I went to college.

We have to think through how to choose a meaningful life where we’re helping one another in ways that really help the Earth.
