Eco(A)Ware is a way to move out from underneath this despair and its lure to cynicism and inaction. To be Eco(A)Ware is to be fully conscious, resilient, and able to move forward by rebuilding the spirit of community and reclaiming democracy. It’s about taking back the commons, protecting the environment, easing the burden of environmental injustice, and empowering individuals to live for a better world against the edge of uncertainty and risk.
