As the crisis deepens, those focused on spreading the word (whether in a “confrontational” manner or not) and those focused on inclusiveness and the implementation of responses will find that they need each other as much as the world needs to hear and see what both groups have to offer.
Over 60 prominent policy leaders, activists, scientists and scholars will gather to discuss the Global Triple Crisis in Washington DC:
– Climate Change
– Peak Oil (The End of Cheap Energy)
-Global Resource Depletion (including Species Extinction)
Dismissing the importance of small personal behavior choices in favor of a sole focus on policy changes is a big mistake. Small behaviors are important not only for the direct environmental impact they have, but because they often lead to more and more pro-environmental behaviors over time.

Whenever ecologists gather, we might expect them to be screaming at the top of their lungs (or at least doing what passes for this in academic circles) about the imminent peril in which we humans find ourselves. But at a recent annual meeting of the Ecological Society of America (ESA), those figurative screams could only be rated as somewhere between muffled and nonexistent.
