* I want to act locally to help fight climate change (by allowing more people to live in a walkable neighborhood within a car-free commute of great jobs) * I want my friends to stop leaving the city and state * I want my daughter to be able to afford to move out of the house in 20 years * I want the lusher culture population density brings (better museums, more art, more interesting foods and shops, a wider variety of orgs and interest groups for me to join...) * I want my kids schools to be less desperate for teachers, who currently are constantly quitting because they either live here and can't make ends meet or they live far away and burn out on their commute * I care about the plight of others
