Jeanne Roberts

I'm a freelance writer, a former reporter, the mother of four amazingly compassionate and intelligent human beings but otherwise poor as the proverbial church mouse. I write about the important stuff: environment, corporate fraud, government negligence and corruption - you name it (if it makes you mad, I've probably covered it). I just finished a book on environmental initiatives for homeowners, Greening Your Home, and write for several online sites. I'm considered an environmentalist (or maybe just a left-wing nut job), but my real concern is sustainability. We all have to live on the planet together - people, birds, buffalo, flowers and zooplankton. Saving spotted owls only to dispossess people doesn't float my boat. Surely, with our technology, experience and understanding of natural systems, we can create a world where owls and loggers both get critical habitat. "Life is a journey. Don't get lost following someone else's footprints".
