It’s June, 5, Earth Day. We are at the crossroads from where the future of the only habitable planet we know looks bleak. The oil spill is about to engulf our beaches. Forests and other habitats are being destroyed much faster than they can grow. The heat this year is unbearable and soon the storms will be upon us. Where are we going?
Today, I walked down to watch this movie in which a bird of paradise waits nearly three weeks in the same spot for the female to arrive. It then presents a dance that can only be described as celestial. I can still go to the Amazon forest to watch this live. Will my grandchildren be able to do it? I don’t think so.
I sound alarmist. Ok. But I am not alone. Watch this.
