How do you spend a typical day? Also do you live with family or by yourself? If you live with family, are they supportive or understanding of your life and work?

Doesn't the idea that 'because climate change, food shortages and rampant economic inequality will destroy the corporate workforce and customer bases, corporations ought to make major investments and reformations to mitigate those risks' fail to address the issue that corporate interests are actually fundamentally different than the interests of individuals and communities?

If corporations found a way to exist and grow that did not depend on a stable healthy global population of humans, would they not do that? What if those that do not make that bargain are out-competed by those that do?

So I believe that for its own good, business needs to strengthen the power of the institutions that can balance business and address these problems -- helping to build effective, transparent, democratically elected governments, a strong independent media, strong employee representation.

How would any change in the legal or regulatory environment precipitated by corporations not just further those corporarions' interests?
