What's New
Congratulations on completing No Impact Week!
The No Impact Diaries:

- Christian Honce: I've been capitulating all week about what I've done wrong, and I haven't stopped to think about what I've done right: learning to see things differently.
- Erin Collins: Australian children are raised to be water-conscious, but right now the country is gaga over mining—including mining water.
- Fr. John Rausch: I put a jar of orange water on the table, and people know that’s filled
with iron, arsenic, and more, drawn from the neighborhood. I then ask—where do
kids play?
