Yes!

Pete Seeger is my hero, so when I saw him on the back of Yes! magazine I had to check it out. I am so glad I did!
Yes! is a not-for-profit with no corporate advertising. The articles discuss the current state of our world from energy, environment and food to human rights and justice. What sets them apart is the consistently proactive, positive focus. It is so easy to become pessimistic and to feel as if we as individuals are powerless against large economic and environmental forces. The authors featured consistently provide hope and suggest positive action for improving our world. They manage to do this without negativity toward other viewpoints and without marginalizing anyone.
The graphics and layout make complex issues easy to understand and lend themselves nicely to classroom use. A fantastic resource for educators and libraries, free subscriptions are available through the website. If you are looking for hope and want to change the world, Yes! magazine may be the inspiration you are looking for.
