An Interview with Wangari Maathai
Planting tree is very meaningful because it can not only make for firewood but also solve the soil erosion problem. Planting tree is really a good idea because it is easy and cheap. After reading this interview, I know trees can bring underground water to the surface which is very cool. Wangari knows some leaders would use their right to some private things and use this natural resources to enrich themselves, but she is brave and decide to stop it and protect the environment. In history, the role of women is staying at home and take care of family, and men will go to work, but in the movement, women can plant the tree and work for their family. Women can meet new friends and live in a meaningful life. Through he movement, people can experience their own spirituality, and they can find out what they need and what they can do. People should do the work to fight with corruption, injustices, and inequalities, and should not wait others to help us to solve the problem.
Monetary system qualifies what values different merchandise holds in society. Meanwhile, it deceives human to ignore the deficiency of the system in which some objects are not priceable. People therefore often commit slippery-slope logic loops that things are not priced are worthless, which ultimately contributes to lots of mistakes they regret afterwards.
