If you could change one thing about our world, what would it be? Is there a individual or an organization doing work in this area that you want us to know about?
I would like to waive a magic wand and end factory farming and wild animal captivity immediately and turn everyone onto amazing plant-based foods. Yes, James Aspey and Carly Taylor are a couple doing awesome work in animal activism, as well as Damien Mander's work in Africa.
Before I die I want to….
Camp out under the aurora borealis and drink maple water from a maple tree in the forest!
