In what ways does nature inspire or inform your work?
Everything I write is ultimately about nature. Human nature, the impacts of policies and politics on the environment and our climate, and what our collective action, or inaction, means for the future.
What does it mean to you to be part of a thriving ecosystem?
Every action has a reaction. There is nothing that highlights that more than the reality of our warming globe thanks to human caused climate change. A thriving ecosystem might not be a perfect one, but it’s one that is trying. That accepts facts and science and uses them to make strategic and thoughtful decisions for the good of the planet.
