I am Zane Waxman.

I am a student in the School of Education and Social Policy at Northwestern University, class of 2016. I am enrolled in a course entitled "Online Communities and Crowds," Professor Aaron Shaw's class in the Communication Studies department.

I wish that people who believe in the importance of "national security" would listen to security experts (sometimes). Then perhaps we would be responding to climate change the way we are responding to ISIS: http://news.yahoo.com/climate-change-immediate-risk-pentagon-says-132532129.html

Of course, these "experts" don't really want to prevent more climate change, they just want to figure out how to exist in a world where they've already deemed it inevitable: http://www.juancole.com/2014/11/pentagon-surrender-climate.html

So that's why I'm on wikipedia, I want important knowledge to be easily accessible so as to hopefully contribute to effective decision making in response to important challenges.
