We are recovering from a huge hangover.Re-covering, which is to say, we are concealing, once again, the behaviors that caused the painful, debilitating circumstances. Actually, we hardly bother to conceal the booming behaviors that bust us.
Those rich-getting-richer types may symbolize our behavior, but we are all collectively consuming and enabling in a way that cannot be sustained.Booms are worth the busts … or else why would we keep acting that way?They’re worth it until they’re not worth it anymore.They’re worth it until what’s busted can’t be put back together again.
One reason CampChuck supports Rocky Mountain Institute so enthusiastically is their non-partisan quest for sustainable economic practice. Here’s a quote from what RMI calls its politics:“…entering, in a friendly and open spirit, into the midst of even bitter controversy. Handling conflict with integrity, respect, and sincerity, we've found, can often turn it into an opportunity for mutual learning, trust-building, and resolution.”
CampChuck continues as it has since 1992, matching every subscription dollar for dollar. All subscriptions – more than $28,000 plus CampChuck’s 100% match of $28,000 -- have funneled through CampChuck to RMI and Food Banks.Whether you subscribe at the official $5 level or the average participation of $30, think sustainable economic practice and the golden rule.And think access to CampChuck’s newsletters.
