Week 8, Here is my modest effort to change daily life. I changed my commute to work from car to using light rail trolley system. It saves me money even though it does take longer to get to work. My long range goal is to participate in an ecological project which I think will help our region adapt to climate change. The idea is from author Connie Barlow. She has pioneered a program of assisted migration of trees. Since 2005, it has been controversial, because the old guard of environmentalists see moving species to other regions as invasive species. However, since we know climate is changing, trees need to move to where they are adapted to survive. She has a youtube channel. Here is the first of a series of videos describing her studies. https://youtube/watch?v=JqksZfXwO44&list=UUVl3Dslz5uww1EdHJV7vEOg
