@RayDandy No he isnt right now, it just got way too much for him. Very heartbreaking. I am hoping to do something in the future for both of us. He is a very kind person, just got so overwhelmed.
As a progressive searching for more information on Worldchanging I stumbled upon the above. I have to say that the speaker comes across as, flaky, spacey, possibly stoned -everything modern progressives dont need. Give us substance and clarity. This kind of petty, private cause of a millionaire actually takes away from the environmental question he's concerned with.
Respectfully, I think it's sad that we live in a time when earnestness comes across as "spacey, possibly stoned." Perhaps if we as wannabe-"progressives" were more humble and willing to accept that humans quite don't know what they need, we could starting healing the world. While we're writing YouTube comments chafing at Richard's "petty" cause, he's the one doggedly pursuing the "environmental question," regardless of the non-Hollywood outcome. The EPA and enviro groups are not "on it."
Moving! Your dedication is enviable, I wish there had been a way to help you raise the funds to keep your vision. Thank you for your tenacity and bringing this to the publics eye.
It is with great honor to say I know this man personally. He is one of the most dedicated turtle people out there.
