Good Day BIll:Have you had an opportunity to look at the work being done at the Post Carbon Instistute?
If not, it may be worth a little of your time as the folks there have been doing some great work creating altruistic plans, ideas and actions for what will ultimately soon be a post carbon world as the remaining timeline for fossil fuels is clearly quite short.
Here is a link to their site and I believe they live and operate in your neck of the woods up there in Oregon. https://www.postcarbon.org/
Also, they are holding a webinar on October 10th regarding how to have those difficult conversations about the climate emergency. You may find this session of value and interest.
Here's alink for the webinar.

Oh yeah, and by the way; hope you don't mind if I share what I am going to do for the rest of my life? Well. everyday I'll write down three things I am grateful for, one new wisdom, and one new clever idea. Then before you know it there is nothing to complain about and everything just keeps getting better and more balanced.
The real secret of this wonderful discipline is to share it with everyone you know or meet - then watch its magic take hold!
In the meantime, thanks for everything.
