I am interested in discovering how to live as a resident of the earth instead of as a resident of the cyber-world our society has designed for us, where we continually destroy air, water, land, and our own consciousnesses in a mad rush to exercise power over things and to acquire more possessions. I am involved in bicycle commuting, composting, et cetera, but I want to learn how to live more in accord with an aphorism I read a long time ago: One can do no better than the worm; it does its maker's will and destroys nothing.
