I Think That The Environmental Movement Is Wisely Moving Away From A Largely Emotion-based Argument For The Spiritual Or Intrinsic Value Of Nature With A Capital "n" And Evolving Toward A Very Hard-nosed Case For The Economic Value Of Natural Capital, Ecosystem Services, Biodiversity, Etc.

But Work That's Got Real Substance Does Make People Feel, "there's Someone Else Out There Who Relates To My Experience, Or Who Just Helped Me Understand My Own Experience A Little Bit Better." And I Think That's Still Got Enormous Value.

There Are So Many People Who Are Conscientious And Caring About Others. I've Spent Time Working In Countries Where I Really Noticed The Absence Of Civic Concern, Care For Other People. I've Been In Other Countries Where I Feel A Palpable, Almost Tooth-and-claw Attitude Between People - Machiavellian, Me And Mine. And You Can Take For Granted Being Here, With All The Bloviating And The Media, On A Day-to-day Level, People In This Country Are Really Pretty Concerned For Each Other.
