Irv tells his story about what kids answered when asked “Where do peanuts come from?” The answer Irv got was “The grocery store.”

Irv starts a conversation with Mark about people having no interaction with the natural world. Mark comments: “. . . return to nature gracefully.”

We talk about the imbalance of man to nature and that man controls about 40% out of millions of species on earth today.

How do you market this and what can we do?
Mark: “A mind shift. Local energy suppliers. Use of biomass to create energy sources. Shop at locally owned businesses.”

Carolyn asks Mark: “Give us one message for people listening today.” Mark replies “Give up fear!”
