Ask yourself: How much time do we have left for a shift to a sustainable lifestyle? Would you like Green retirement rather than the choices available today, with a useful dignified purpose? Does your community provide the best education for all ages? Education today needs to focus on the social and technical skills necessary for sustainable living for all ages?

FOSL is working on it!!
