+*Sustainability*
+
+We agreed Terms of Reference for a new Meeting for Sufferings
+Sustainability Monitoring Group to be "responsible for monitoring the
+Yearly Meeting’s commitment to Sustainability".
+
+*Post-truth world*
+
+In response to a concern about this matter from Southern Marches Area
+Meeting, MfS had asked for input from Area Meetings, which was patchy
+and equivocal: not so much that this was a problem, and one that
+concerns us, but more that we have neither the capacity nor the
+insight necessary to intervene as a Society.  A very useful list of
+organisations who _are_ active in relevant ways was included as an
+appendix to the item.
+
+Gandi: "Truthfulness is even more important that peacefulness.  Indeed
+lying is the mother of violence".
+
+Finding the courage to challenge lies is hard enough to do in person,
+it's even harder to do on social media, where the response may well be
+both many-fold and obnoxious.
+
+We agreed 
+
+*Yearly Meeting dates/venue*
+
+We confirmed that for 2021 and 2022 these would be
+
+  2021: 30 April – 3 May
+  2022: 27-30 May
+
+both at Friends House London.
