MOTHER:And if not?

RELATED CONTENT

Seed: If it should turn out that we're going to become an extinct species during my lifetime, I would like to go extinct with equanimity. I hope I don't become hysterical about it, but calmly accept my death and our extinction.

Nonetheless, I'm still at the stage of denial. I don't accept death yet. And I can find nothing more valuable or satisfying to do than to work against that possibility-to cast my life as a vote against extinction.

ACCCESS

THE RAINFOREST ACTION NETWORK is the key American information and organizing group. In return for a $15 (or greater) tax-deductible donation, you'll receive the quarterly World Rainforest Report and periodic "Action Alerts." You can also write RAN to learn about the Council of All Beings workshops that Seed will conduct in the U.S. next summer and to discover a number of specific ways you can support both their Penan and Awa projects.

Thinking Like a Mountain by John Seed,

Joanna Macy, Pat Fleming and Arne Naess contains the rationale for the Council of All Beings and serves as a guidebook on how to hold your own council. It's $9.45 postpaid from Madison Rainforest Group, 29 E. Wilson #202, Madison, WI 53703. "Earth First!" a video Seed coproduced about the Australian fight to preserve rain forest, and two audio cassettes, "Earth First!" and "Nightcap Rain Forest" (the first one contains "eco-songs"; the second, both songs and documentary), are also available from the Madison Group. The video costs $42 postpaid; the cassettes, $ 10 each.

Diet for a New America by John Robbins is a critique of America's meat-centered diet and its effects on our environment. It's available for $13.45 postpaid (California residents add 660 sales tax) from Earth-save Foundation, P.O. Box 949, Felton, CA 95018.
