Once again saddened by mindless destruction

I have just been down to the River Dee here in Chester for my usual daily walk with my dogs,and I am absolutely saddened by this mindless destruction of natural habitat that councils and authorities (in this case I'm told it is the Rivers Authority) who decide its in the best interest not only to keep the public path neatly mowed but the whole of the embankment 30 metre wide.

Only 3 days ago I was admiring the delicate wildflowers and enjoying watching the butterflies and other insects sharing… Continue

Save Bats From White-nose Syndrome and Extinction

Bats are dying by the hundreds of thousands across eastern North America, and the disease that’s killing them -- white-nose syndrome -- shows no sign of slowing down. It’s likely that this fatal, fast-spreading sickness will soon be killing bats in the Midwest and the South, home to some of the most significant bat hibernation sites in the world. Left unchecked, white-nose syndrome could spread even further to populations in the western United States and to bats in other countries.

Despite the… Continue

Going Veggy 3 days per week

I finally made the decision to at least attempt at going vegetarian without upsetting the family who really do love thier meat.

Last night we had cauliflower and spinach bake (the spinach was left over form the salad made at the weekend)served with mushrooms and garlic bread. It was so simple to do with a lovely cheese sauce made from milk/the cauli water a little cornflower thickening and some really nice Double Gloucester cheese. A couple of organic tomatoes off the vine topped it all.

I thi… Continue

Of course forgiven :)

This trip to Gunung Leuser is very much a trial to get some photos and establish costs and how we can help the reserve. Will let you know how we get on. First went there in 1981 - the wardens were shooting the animals and there was a sawmill right in the middle. Tourists weren't welcome! All changed now, thanks to the efforts of Mike Griffiths.

Dearest Karen...

Many thanks for your welcome and comment - will send a friend request as soon as I finish this...

Cocoa's case has astounded me and she is now working with the children she loves so much. She is truly doing service work.

I will be on a healing journey tomorrow...am asking for prayers since it will be very emotional. I will be at the Holocaust Museum in DC and there will be much sadness, much pain released. I pray it will be the first of my journeys to places around the planet that have been subjected to such sadness. I have to do this.

All Love

Many thanks Karen! It's Bali, not Hawaii! The Heart Chakra of the world.

Many years ago my friend and I used to photo tigers in Sumatra. He now looks after the reserve, but they used up all their money caring for the tsunami survivors. He has built a basic lodge deep in the jungle, and later this month I am taking a group of boys out to check it out, with a view to getting regular tourists there to help finance the conservation.

I'm not very good at this social networking stuff, so do feel free to prod me!

Well done for starting this up.

Hi Karen, I've become so addicted to Twitter that I haven't had much time for anything else but walking dogs. I'm starting a Twitterholic Anonymous. Really I am going to limit myself. I've said that before but there's so much good info about pets. Ellen Degeneres is involved with "Halo" dog food my son's fiancee was modeling the product. I look forward to getting to know you! How's the veggie thing working for you?

Hi Karen ☼ thanks for commenting on the Earth movie trailer. That is a very good question about the correct date for Earth Day .... we'll have to investigate.

True though ... we should all celebrate Earth Day ~ EVERY Day

Do all the good you can, By all the means you can, In all the ways you can, In all the places you can, At all the times you can, To all the people you can, As long as ever you can. -- John Wesley, "Letters of John Wesley"

Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centres of energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance. -- Robert F. Kennedy
