The more deeply I search for the roots of the global environmental crisis, the more I am convinced that it is an outer manifestation of an inner crisis that is, for lack of a better word, spiritual... what other word describes the collection of values and assumptions that determine our basic understanding of how we fit into the universe?

As long as the government's actions are secret, it cannot be held accountable. A government for the people and by the people should be transparent to the people.
