I think it is fear that underlies the greed so let's all, in every corner, work towards getting rid of the illusion of fear we live under and realize the enormous bounty we live in.  The world is an abundant place, not a place of lack.  That attitude is man's or woman's...but it isn't real.  It is shoved down our throats and most of us buy into it.  It's very hard not to.

Hi
  Human Greed:  too big of a bite to tackle all at once.  I suggest we just
start where we are and where we can.  SUPPORT the already existing
organizations doing work everywhere (US, Brazil,etc..) and like the seasons,
wait for the snow ball effect .
