If the image is too small to read...

"A thing is right when it tends to preserve the integrity, stability and beauty of the biotic community. It is wrong when it tends otherwise."

Aldo Leopold



My first teacher of Interdependence. His teachings began my path and continue to center me. He died 3 years before I was born and I became his student at the age of 19

Today is Earth Day. A time not only to reflect but engage. vow to save all sentient beings

Thank you for this Doshin, I had not heard of Aldo Leopold, I'll start with A Sand County Almanac.
At the moment my escapist reading is Kim Stanley Robinson's New York 2140, which feels more like prediction than fiction right now.

I had the opportunity to spend some time in the Extinction Rebellion camp in London today and hope to do so a few more times this week. It seemed a good opportunity to spend some time with people trying to make positive change happen.

I'm not sure how widely know the movement is outside of the UK: https://www.theguardian.com/environm...liament-square

Sand County Almanac was given to me by a friend who had to read it for a class. That began my relationship with Aldo. I read him, met two of his children, quote him often, have visited “The Shack” several times (you will read of the shack) and was asked to read one of his books for advancement to candidacy in graduate school when I returned mid career.

Thank you for sharing, Doshin.

Oh brilliant Neil, I'll be there in spirit!
Doshin, I'm just a few pages into the SCA, it's wonderful, so lyrically written, which I hadn't expected.
Thanks to all of you for your eco-practice

Great article, if only people could come together globally and agree to do this. I found some other good articles over there, one of which I'll be posting in the Eco Life thread, thank you for sharing this Doshin

Conserving, protecting and restoring biodiversity requires a global and landscape approach. However there are things that can and should be done locally. I came across this and wanted to share.

An article from our friend David Loy. https://tricycle.org/trikedaily/grow...ogical-crisis/. Hopefully this link works. It is a paid site but you should get a few free reads.

This quote struck me as particularly key.

We don’t need to “return to nature” but to realize that we’ve always been a part of it,
