On Becoming An Advocate


In the process of building EarthSayers.tv I have become an advocate of sustainability. An advocate is “a person who publicly supports or recommends a particular cause or policy. Early on in my career I was hired by the National Association for Community Development in Washington, D.C. We were advocates for community action and community action agencies across the country. It amazes me how long it took me to come full circle, back to advocacy – over thirty years. It wasn’t even part of a plan. It just happened.
