Instead of griping, protesting, and talking to fellows in the choir about what they read, this bandleader involved citizens in making the law that builds responsible environments and healthy communities.
Theactivists who worked in those campaigns served their country. They went well beyond the bloviating talk show hostsor the sedentary citizens, who read or watch TV and thenonly complain. They stemmed the critical massing of dangerous fission nuclear power and its wastes.
Ellen LaConte's book recounts how a critical mass of problems has spread across our environmental and economic spectrum. Hopefully, those who read Life Rules will help craft or mould the laws that will address the well-crafted warnings in Ellen's book. Hopefully, her book helps more grow smart enough to live within Life's Rules so as not to Silent Spring.
Reading excellent books, however, is not enough. American and world citizens must do more than read, write, and express disdain about the state of community and world. They need to serve in correcting what is wrong with the state of community and world, which is why People's Lobby's American World Service Corps (AWSC) Congressional Proposals should be the action part of insuring that Life Rules humanely.
Will Ellen LaConte's Life Rules influence a nation before we further silence our springs, critters, and other living things?
