I’m a cat owned Canadian and trees have my heart. I love books. I write. I create art with pens. I’m a bit obsessed with everything “Arthurian.” I’m vegan for the planet. Earth is everything.

It takes 25 minutes to turn a live steer into a steak at the modern slaughterhouse. They are still alive when they get to various cutters.

This means whale songs can be used as a window into their lives and an indicator of the changing ocean.

Anyone who cares about nature: take note.
The extreme right aren't just the enemy of women, the poor, people of colour, gays, moslems, jews, Palestinians, the disabled, etc., etc... they don't give a damn about the natural world, either.
Our fights are one and the same.

Trees are the ultimate multitaskers! They can absorb up to 48 pounds of CO2 per year, provide shade, create oxygen, prevent soil erosion, and even improve our mental health. Talk about a green superhero!

The richest man in the world with every tool he could possibly need to affect an election wanted the orange felon, in the White House. I don’t think for one second that the orange felon won fairly and I don’t understand why it’s not being investigated.

Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar.
