For both Dr. Mary-Wynne Ashford and Dr. Linda Thyer, health encompasses much more than personal wellbeing. Mary-Wynne worked vigorously towards nuclear disarmament until her recent death; Linda wanted to honour her memory and found this article, http://www.peacemagazine.org/archive/v14n1p25.htm remarkable because it’s so relevant, even though it’s over 20 years old: . It’s also remarkable that both women speak of the need for a new ethic, Mary-Wynne in that article, and Linda when she spoke in September at an anti-pipeline rally, urging us to “also address the crisis of ethos and spirit that our society faces. If we are to allow the Earth to heal, we must also heal our society’s ways.”
