 Happily, I find we are observing several days of concern for our world at the moment – International Immigrants Day, National Indigenous People’s Day, and International Rain Forest Day. Perhaps I’ll include Father’s Day for good measure and because all concerns are interrelated! So, I feel it is time to share our 15-minute video, Grappling With the Climate Crisis Through the Arts, again. Here is another comment from one of the viewers and a link to the video. https://bit.ly/earthcare2021 “ ‘The scarred and sacred earth,’ I really like that. The masks were marvellous, especially the one with the slowly falling tear – so powerful in its simplicity. And the mixture of young and not-so-young participants was poignant - intergenerational grief.” Brenda Linn Stringer counsellor, educator, environmental activist

 What is it? I think its saying, “Yes” to new ideas and “No” to, “But we’ve always done it this way” and “What can I, just one person, do?” and “What will people think?”.
We are just one of many, many animal species but our gift is imagination. let’s each join, or form, a small local group of people who share our urgent concern for environmental / justice issues and strive for RADICAL imagination! Numerous small communities, around the world, have developed life-sustaining ideas by applying their radical imaginations (visit our blog and resource pages). And, on this topic, read David Miller’s 2020 book, Solved: How The World’s Great Cities Are Fixing The Climate Crisis In the meantime, vote for political leaders whose record (as opposed to rhetoric) demonstrates the climate crisis as a priority and vote for them! |
