For over 50 years, the Planet Drum Foundation has promoted bioregionalism through an amazing range of artworks and publications. Much of their material is free to view and download: I highly recommend diving in! planetdrum.org/

I highly recommend reading this and following Daniel. His analysis is spot on, well supported & common sense (which is uncommon today).

We need #CalAccount now for fee-free banking in California. When people can avoid bank fees and interest charges, more money stays in the pockets of working families, helping cover essential needs like food and rent.
