I could see why folks would disagree with this, but in my Facing Waste With Grace essay I argue that local power is the “climate solution” we’ve been waiting for. Mundane things like not shipping and not wasting plastic. Stopping the import of materials to force local recycling and extraction from already mined materials.

But by calling it “nationalism” you risk falling into other traps. I wonder what this is really about? I wish we could think bio-regionally rather than in the abstract idea of nations. Yet as a polisci major I know how old buildings still exist even when they are demolished, until we clean them up. ;)

This is horribly tone def and couldn't be further from the truth. Is this the kind of stuff you teach in your class?

Truly embarrassing on your part.
