It's All About Greed And

I've Been Able To Carve Out Spaces For Myself. At Sundance, I'm In The Mountains - My Property Is Private. I Get On A Horse And Ride For Three, Four Hours. Sometimes Five. I Get Lost. But When I'm In, I'm In.

I Would See My Hometown, Los Angeles, Change. Green Space And Orange Groves Gave Way To Cement, Freeways Flooded With Traffic, And Air Pollution, All In The Name Of "progress." I Felt Like I Was Losing My Home. It Had A Profound Effect On Me, And I Realized Just How Important Nature Was To My Spirit, My Soul, My Point Of View.

You Work Like Hell To Get Yourself Ahead In The Business. You Could Go Anywhere Before, And Suddenly You Can't Go Anywhere. It's Like Being A Cartoon Character.

Essentially, My Kids Grew Up With The Emphasis On The Environment Because I Became A Political Activist In About 1969 And It Was Not An Easy Time. Those Were The Days When The Oil And Gas Companies Pretty Much Controlled The Show And Anybody Speaking About Solar Energy Or Carbon Energy Would Get Smashed Down As Being A Radical Or A Tree-hugger Or What Have You. So I Was Out There Feeling Very Often Alone And My Kids Would Get That.

All My Life I've Been Dogged By Guilt Because I Feel There Is This Difference Between The Way I Look And The Way I Feel Inside.
