We are the environment, we do not stand apart from it, it’s our legacy. I want people to realize that not everyone has to speak at a protest, or sit in a lawmaker’s office, or donate $1 million to the cause of saving our environment. Meet movements where you're at now, and go from there. Ken Winship, Member, Environment Maine
