Mask Mandates are Harmful to Children
Mask Mandates are Harmful to Children: It is reasonable to expect any health related intervention on the public at large to be justified, proportional, undergo a harm-vs-benefit review, be informed and consented to.

Being in nature is just so good for us. When we enter nature we should go quietly, with humility and respect, understanding that we have everything to learn and little, if anything at all, to teach.
Truth, the First Casualty of Ecocide on Earth
