I first got involved with ending world hunger and I got hip to the facts about it - what a huge problem it was and how it wasn't a matter of not having food or not knowing how to end it but it was a matter of creating the political will.
I don't think it's too hippie to want to clean up the planet so you don't wind up dying of some kind of cancer when you're 45 years old. It enrages me that these big cancer-research organizations can't be bothered to man the front lines of environmental protest.
