“Don’t make the mistake of underestimating the implications of small changes. Simple doesn’t mean unimportant. Even the simplest actions can make a difference when multiplied by many.” Crissy Trask, It’s Easy Being Green Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has. Margaret Mead
