Jeff Conant
Author Jeff Conant spent many productive years working in Zapatista communities. Now he works with Friends of the Earth with a focus on climate justice. In this article he puts his years of experience in both fields on paper: “Probably the most commonly asked question of people just arriving at a deep concern for the ecological crisis is, ‘What can I, as an individual, do to make things better?’ The simple answer, which I learned from living among Zapatista villagers, is nothing”.
There is of course more to this “nothing”, please read the excellent article.
