 <title>What should our movement look like in 2040?</title>
 <link>http://www.geo.coop/node/551</link>
 <description>&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#039;Calibri&#039;,&#039;sans-serif&#039;&quot;&gt;Where will our movement be in another 30 years? In 2040, I will be 76 years old. Chances are, if I am still alive, I will be hopefully still be blogging (or whatever the kids will be doing in those days) but I will likely not be fully involved in the movement or physically working a 40-50 hour work week. Almost all of our current leadership will be in the same position. The current crop of  &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#039;Calibri&#039;,&#039;sans-serif&#039;&quot;&gt;Toxic Soil Busters&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; will be pushing 50 (like I am now). What should our movement look like in that age?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.geo.coop/node/551&quot;&gt;read more&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
