Well done. Affordable housing is a crisis in this country. I build this type of housing and it’s a Sisyphean task even in the most accommodating communities.

There are so many urgent needs that should be addressed in a thoughtful, planned and coherent manner, but that will not because we cannot seem to do that anymore. At any level of government. Citizens will need to put down their electronics and face up to the hard reality that we cannot keep going down this path of ecological and civic disaster.

Well fleshed out. Most writers trying make these points don’t get much beyond basic assertions. Keep it up Rex.

Rex, This is the most insightful piece on climate change and what to do about it that I have ever read. Thank you.

That's very kind, Steve. I think we are among those who feel pretty passionately about this existential issue -- and I suspect that comes through when we write about it. Gotta keep up the pressure.
