Are we paying attention yet?

The Artdog Quote of the Week

We're heading into the Final Decade (or less) of last-minute chances to pull ourselves out of the (literal) fire. I hope we'll all take this idea that Every day needs to be Earth Day more to heart. The evidence is all around us, and too many of our fellow Earthlings are still in denial.



What can we do? First, educate ourselves. Learn what works, and what's just "green theater." Focus on small, consistent things you can do.

Look for ways to live without using plastic. Seek ways to advocate for change, whether it's petitioning a manufacturer to stop over-packaging in non-biodegradable materials, writing your legislators, or encouraging a friend to use recycling options nearby.

All of us can do something. All of us MUST do something. Or all of us will suffer more and more consequences.

IMAGE: I found this image (complete with its focus on the Americas) on the Tehran Times (seriously). I love the image, and I thank them for sharing! It really IS a global issue.
