I believe in the power & promise of a Restoration Economy. Where we restore our damaged soils, forests, grasslands, mangroves & coral reefs. While creating jobs & helping to address climate change. Check out my TEDxBoston talk on the Restoration Economy: bit.ly/3HgVgRI

The Sun is 99.8% of all mass in our solar system. Even if you somehow burned Jupiter and everything that is not the Sun in a fusion reactor, the Sun would still round up to 100% of all energy. The Sun is all that matters long-term.

Supporting the basic human needs of the most vulnerable is not only a moral act, it also bosters diplomacy and national security.

El próximo 9 y 10 de abril, #Chile será sede de la Reunión Anual de la Iniciativa 20x20, una alianza latinoamericana liderada por 18 países miembros que buscan cambiar las dinámicas que llevan a la degradación de las tierras y buscan restaurar 50 millones de hectáreas al 2030. Para conocer los avances de la jornada, que se realizará en la ciudad de #PuertoVaras, y que tendrá como lema “Paisaje multifuncionales para el bienestar de las personas”, es que recibimos a una Una delegación del World Resources Institute (WRI). El Presidente @gabrielboric nos ha dicho que debemos apoyar y promover todas las iniciativas público - privado que buscan, en este caso, mejorar la recuperación de suelos agrícolas y forestales, la biodiversidad y los servicios ecosistémicos para el bienestar de las comunidades y las personas.

Finally free.

Some people are ruled by their beliefs—they will torture themselves for the sake of an idea. Others are ruled by their emotions—they will change their mind a thousand times in search of what feels good. A healthy mind acknowledges both, but is ruled by neither.
