Title: Freedom At Risk: How To Protect Your Personal And Financial Freedoms
Published: 2022
How this book is helping:
Freedom At Risk goes beyond educating how people, propaganda and profits are impact our freedoms. It also provides the readers several simple, actionable road maps to gain greater personal and financial freedoms. Great care was taken to define the differences between personal and financial freedoms, which then allows the reader to take action on multiple plans, both personal and financial, to protect themselves.
Freedom At Risk also introduces the reader to the concept of the Freedom Paradox. Which is the notion that we (society in general) will never be freer than we are today. Freedom is in a constant state of decay. That is a very bold statement and once understood, helps the reader understand why we need to protect the freedoms we have today.

When we see people as individuals, we're less rigid. We are more open to listening. And we might even be willing to change.

Elephants' enormous bodies are literally designed to be natural climate mitigators . As we've seen this summer with floods, wildfires and soaring temperatures across the globe, climate change has no borders, so what happens to elephants in India and Africa reverberates and impacts other countries at a devastating pace. Protecting elephants and their habitat protects the biodiversity that is essential to combating climate change. Since money makes the world go round, it's important to highlight that even the International Monetary Fund acknowledges elephants’ contribution, noting that each elephant is responsible for sequestering carbon worth more than $1.75 million in its lifetime. Elephant extinction would only exacerbate climate change. Sangita's message also speaks to other women yearning to become free of their own shackles.
