Description
This paper explores how the United States federal government has historically supported animal agribusiness to the detriment of native ecosystems and wildlife. It focuses on agricultural subsidies and state-funded predator persecution, with an emphasis on the historical conflict between gray wolves and ranchers in America. This paper examines the ecological consequences of agricultural policy in the U.S. and potential solutions to these issues that account for the needs of humans, wildlife, and the environment.

Description
In the face of deep disconnection and chaotic crises throughout our planet, I have identified five invitations for foundational actions and ways of living, that can lead to us deepening our connection with ourselves and with the Earth in individualized ways, while cultivating harmony on our shared world. These are; to listen, to express, to envision, to reciprocate, and to dance. An open mind and heart will make them most effective.
