Self-Reliance Enter
Table of Contents
Reliance on one's own efforts and abilities usually serves as the standard definition of this term. Greens tend to expand this term to include a social and national context. This means that the USA ought to pursue self-reliance as should regional and local governing bodies everywhere. Reliance on goods and services from distant communities produces ecological hazards, for an example of one problem. Self-reliance in our usage means to care for one's self, community, and ecosystem to the best of their ability. Some of us may do more for ourselves and others, while others less by no design of their own. The point for Greens is to work in the direction of self-reliance whenever, wherever possible for the benefit of the seventh generation This is a new page and we cannot give our endorsement to any link.
