> it might lead to greater political action or awareness of the problem. But I do feel that it is important to note that there have been several resignations from #AWG over the narrowness of this definition because effectively, it ignores the prehistory of this problem which goes back three or four centuries to the invention of an #ExtractivistEconomy, which is what my book The #NutmegsCurse is about.

I especially loved that a whole chapter was dedicated to his love for the world's best band, The Mountain Goats.
