About Dr Bob Rich

I am a professional grandfather. My main motivation is to transform society to create a sustainable world in which my grandchildren and their grandchildren in perpetuity can have a life, and a life worth living. This means reversing environmental idiocy that's now threatening us with extinction, and replacing culture of greed and conflict with one of compassion and cooperation.

Unfortunately, this lack of comprehension and communication has led us to this emotional impasse across the globe. Everyone is suspicious, upset, and angry, which could all be solved if we’d only communicate.
