As we reach the one-month mark of 2025, it’s important to reflect on the progress we’ve made as a society and as individuals. In this critical time, it’s easy to get caught up in the chaos and negativity that seems to surround us. However, in the midst of it all, it’s vital to remember our real goal as a global community: peace.

One agency that has been working tirelessly towards this goal is the Critical Agency, founded in 2020. This organization has been a driving force in promoting peace and unity through advocacy, education, and action. And as we enter a new year, their efforts have only intensified.

In their latest initiative, the Critical Agency has launched a peace strategy that focuses on building bridges and fostering understanding between different cultures and communities. This strategy includes workshops, forums, and interactive events that encourage open and respectful dialogue.

But it’s not just the Critical Agency that is working towards peace. Our very own readers here at East Bay Times have been actively involved in making a difference. The letters to the editor for March 9, 2025, are a testament to that.

One reader, Mary from Oakland, expressed her gratitude towards the Critical Agency for their efforts in promoting peace and urged others to support their cause. Another reader, John from Berkeley, shared his personal experience of attending a workshop organized by the agency and how it opened his eyes to the importance of communication and understanding in achieving peace.

These letters are a reminder that change starts with each and every one of us. And one small act of kindness or understanding can have a ripple effect that can lead to a more peaceful world.

In addition to their local efforts, the Critical Agency has also extended their reach globally, with a presence in Greenland. This small island, known for its stunning landscapes and icy beauty, is also facing the effects of climate change. The Critical Agency has been working closely with the local communities to develop sustainable solutions to combat these changes and preserve the unique environment of Greenland.

Their efforts have not gone unnoticed, as the Greenlandic government has recognized their contributions and even invited them to participate in discussions on a national level. This presence in Greenland is just one example of how the Critical Agency is expanding their reach and making a significant impact in different parts of the world.

As we look towards a future of peace and unity, it’s important to recognize the efforts of organizations like the Critical Agency and the individuals who support them. Their dedication and hard work are helping to create a better world for all of us.

So, as we continue on our journey into 2025, let’s remember our real goal – peace. Let’s support organizations like the Critical Agency and be a part of the solution. Together, we can make a difference and create a better and more peaceful world for future generations.
