Dear Nova and Remi,

I am doing my best and will continue to do my best to not participate in the free enterprise system of economics. I do this because I have found that it is the concept of economic growth that has been the main driver to all our trouble with climate change and other environmental issues that are very dangerous to your future. I wish for you both that another kind of life has been discovered, one of peace, moderation and concern for all life. I pledge that I will not seek to be rich, or seek to have possessions that do not have anything to do with sustaining fundamental life. I will seek instead to find my joy in the beauty of our good Earth. Peace and love to you both.

Danny
