		<description><![CDATA[The importance of wasting time, a failed ban on a nasty pesticide, why organic food is so expensive, and more. | Kristin The Roosevelt Institute (love!) just completed a study of basic income experiments&#8212;long version here and short summary here. The upshot: extra cash helps improve parenting, mental health, school attendance and test scores, and reduces substance abuse and addiction. What it doesn’t do is cause people to stop working. As an introduction to its advice to the modern American left, this article quotes an amazing (but not oft-quoted) speech by...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Why facts don't change our minds, the green movement addresses racism, a cosmos controversy, and more.  | Serena Former Grist staff writer Brentin Mock (now with CityLab) wrote an excellent article for Outside Magazine on the imperative for traditional green organizations to adopt racial justice as a central priority to their work. Doing so, he argues, is the only way to right these groups’ racist legacy and to remain relevant and powerful into the future. My new morning mindfulness practice? Taking a minute each morning to ponder...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Big Sugar's sweet lies, the first urban work college, the "shine theory," and more. | Anna Kandi Mossett of the Indigenous Environmental Network is my new hero. Her voice is sharp and clear and powerful on the reasons people are gathering to protect traditional sacred sites and block the Dakota Access Pipeline. She has helped focus national attention on the impact that climate change and environmental injustice are having on Indigenous communities across North America. Mossett was on the Diane Rhem show this week. You...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Support grows at Sioux, how three-day weekends can save the world, remembering Uncle Bob, and more. | Serena I heard this fascinating interview last week on NPR’s “Fresh Air.” How can we get to a cleaner energy future? Build lots and lots more renewables? Well, sure, but even more than that&#8212;and first&#8212;we need a smarter, stronger, more distributed energy grid. Gretchen Bakke, author of The Grid: The Fraying Wires Between Americans and Our Energy Future, explains. On a lighter note, I’m pretty sure I’ve shared something along...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[How to live to be 100, growing organs on apples, the "New American Majority," and more. | Kristin I’ve been listening to podcasts recently so I can “read” on the go. I love NPR’s TED Radio Hour. This episode, &#8220;Becoming Wise,&#8221; includes a lovely story told by a guy whose family hosted Nelson Mandela when he was first released from prison. He tells about a herd of elephants that helped a young elephant with a birth defect survive, as a metaphor for how we can only truly...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dating without a car, assessing US gender equality, leading the Thin Green Line, and more. | Serena The excellent local blog Seattlish called out a KIRO Radio host for poking fun at folks who use public transit in their dating endeavors (as part of an argument against the city’s smart new restricted parking zones). Seattlish then proceeded to crowdsource a bunch of sweet stories about people who used public transit and car2go and other rad car-free urban modes to find romance. Awesome. And I’m happy to...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Macklemore on Sesame Street, one dog's solo bus commute, and more. | Serena Teju Cole nails it again. He had an excellent piece in the New Yorker on the Charlie Hebdo massacre. He describes how it is far easier to mourn the freedom-representing victims of a few unhinged individuals&#8212;and even easier if the killers are Muslim&#8212;than it is to name and challenge the violence against free speech and action carried out every day by our own Western governments. I love Aziz Ansari. I love him even...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Look to Sweden for the future of family-friendly parental leave legislation. | My husband refuses to cut our baby daughter&#8217;s fingernails. I always end up doing it. So, I had to laugh when that very subject came up in this New York Times article on Swedish parental leave as an illustration of an imbalance that often arises in parenting roles&#8212;where the default is mom as &#8220;dominant&#8221; parent. It turns out that family-friendly policy can actually increase the number of dads who cut...]]></description>
