Trail Mix & Goon

SpencerAs mentioned in yesterday’s blog post, The Nursing Career Transformation Roundtable Launched Yesterday. My husband Tomaso and I are launching another Hanginar series on 10/27/14. We will interview Spencer Johnson, author of Trail Mix & Goon. Spencer is in his early 20s and this is his first Memoir.

The Memoir has a feel between a travelogue and a Jack Kerouac psychic free mind kind of flow. I am enjoying the read.

Spencer is passionate about solving the climate crisis. His book chronicles his travels in Australia in 2012 when he studied climate change there as part of his college curriculum.

Spencer wants to work with Bill McKibben and has met and spoken to him several times. 350.org is at the heart of the work being done to reverse climate change on planet earth. The science has been done and explains why we are in a climate crisis.

Apartheid in South Africa ended when big business divested from those corporations that supported Apartheid. Dependence on big oil can be obliterated overnight when companies divest from oil stocks.

We will discuss these topics and much much more on Mondays Hanginar.

    It’s good to see that young people are thinking critically about changes that need to happen in the world today. I’ll be interested in looking up the title to read myself.
