After working 30 years as an engineer in High Tech I was downsized by the company I had worked at for 10 years. I then found another job and this company also failed soon after. Being out of work twice at the age of 50, I began to reflect on what I had accomplished over the years. It wasn't much. Sure I collected a paycheque and the work was interesting but I didn't realized my childhood dreams.

I didn't invent a product that would revolutionize the world or make our planet a better place to live. I have to say that I am very disappointed. I started my career full of excitement and enthusiasm. But over the years collecting a salary became the most important thing, excitement and enthusiasm snuffed out by office politics, budgets and the realities of work life.

Now I can't change the past but I can do something about the future. So here I am, combating climate change, pollution and other environmental issues.
