We need to think of each other as sisters and brothers, and to be concerned with each other’s welfare. We must seek to lessen the suffering of others. Rather than working to acquire wealth, we need to do something meaningful, directed toward the welfare of humanity as a whole.

My favorite prayer says: "For as long as space endures, And for as long as living beings remain, Until then may I too abide, To dispel the misery of the world." And, in trying to fulfill that aspiration, I feel my life has been of some benefit.
@Skentelbery@DickStraughan@BBCCornwall Hi Jules, it’s my birthday on Sunday, we’re having Thai! Love the fish cakes. Great memories of travelling to St. Malo on the Malcolm miller with you a wee while ago! Happy birthday for the weekend!
We're now 2 yrs into the decisive decade. Emissions should be in an unprecedented fall, instead we're seeing the 2nd biggest rise ever recorded. We're wasting invaluable time pretending we can solve this crisis without treating it like a crisis. World leaders are still in denial.
“As citizens across the planet, we urge you to face up to the climate emergency. Not next year. Not next month. Now”
Join me and activists all over the world and demand leaders to face the climate crisis at #COP26
So far more than 650k people have signed!

Why aren't we discussing some kind of resident's status for Cornwall as a solution to the scourges of 2nd homes and excess demand created by the 'Cornwall lifestyle'? Possible models in S.Tyrol, Jersey or Finland and similar demands in Brittany? https://t.co/3Xme6OCky0
"No more 2nd homes until every Cornish person has a 1st one"
