It's that time of year when the morning shadows are oh so long and when a squirrel runs across the power line outside, a GIANT squirrel shadow runs across my living room wall.

I hate sitting through hours of training - but, wow, I just completed a week of trainings with Habitat for Humanity International regarding affiliate leadership and I am... beyond impressed. And inspired.

If anyone tells you that they can explain all of the craziness of the world in a single theory be skeptical. The world is complex and many factors drive history.

I do think there is one vector of pressure that we don't talk about directly very often that is playing a role in a lot of political edginess. From nativism, to the rightward swing of the UK and US the silent actor is climate change.

Because at this point wealthy people know that it is real and I think some of them are panicking.

One of the subreddits I manage, focused on Philanthropy, now has 8000 members, as the notice below let me know.
Most of my time is spent deleting requests for donations. But there are a few interesting things happening now and again.
If you have questions or thoughts about philanthropy, come share them on Reddit.
