Hi Phinnie!
Thanks! I love oceans too! I lived on the beach for 2.5 years. It was amazing!
I'm also very interested in environmental issues, particularly the different perspectives when debating right to the environment versus environmental rights. Is this something you can tell me more about?
Thanks for reaching out!

Hi Jennifer-- I also live in Portland, OR and dream about spending a year living at the coast sometime...Environmental issues sure can get complicated! It's embarrassing to me how Americans consume so much more than our share of the world's diminishing resources...
