When there is water, there is life....
Our last irrigation of the season yesterday.
It is predicted that the high today in Los Ranchos will be 80 degrees F. The animals and plants are very confused - me too.

Is this accurate? I have asked my friends mentioned in the article if this is true and haven't heard back.

Because the desire for money (power, recognition, ascendancy) seems unquenchable among many humans, those who offer money will rule those who want money.

VOTE FOR NATURE!

The truth about the coming climate catastrophe.

"The legislative and executive branches are responsible for defining and implementing the laws....As long as fossil fuels are the cheapest energy, they will continue to be used.

Fossil fuels are cheapest only because of government policies.
- First, there are substantial direct and indirect subsidies of fossil fuels.

- Second, fossil fuel companies are not made to pay for the damage that fossil fuels do to human health. Instead, the public is forced to bear the costs of air and water pollution.

- Third, fossil fuel companies are not made to pay for the costs of damage to the environment and the well-being of future generations caused by climate change."
- James Hansen from Storms of My Grandchildren.

The heat will kill us first. 😢

Our leaders continue to ignore the peril we are creating for our children and grandchildren.

2023 was unusually hot, both on land and in the ocean. (The oceans absorb over 90 percent of the excess heat caused by global warming.) It was the hottest year in over 170 years of record keeping, even exceeding scientists’ predictions.

There’s 50 percent more carbon dioxide in the air than before the Industrial Revolution.

Fun read. 😀❤

"On Freedom takes us on a thrilling intellectual journey. Drawing on the work of philosophers and political dissidents, conversations with contemporary thinkers, and his own experiences coming of age in a time of American exceptionalism, Snyder identifies the practices and attitudes—the habits of mind—that will allow us to design a government in which we and future generations can flourish. We come to appreciate the importance of traditions (championed by the right) but also the role of institutions (the purview of the left). Intimate yet ambitious, this book helps forge a new consensus rooted in a politics of abundance, generosity, and grace."

"Despite big declines in North America and Europe, the increase in coal use in India and China overwhelms any climate improvement chances."

Good parents make all the difference in how we view life and its challenges.

My mom got each kid in our family a library card. She took us every Saturday morning to the Ernie Pyle Branch Library in ABQ to pick out a new book for the week. That and playing baseball were the highlights of the week. Thank you, mom!

“The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.” – Mahatma Gandhi

This quote reflects the deep respect and ethical responsibility we (should) have towards all living creatures, recognizing their inherent worth beyond any utilitarian value. It’s a powerful reminder of our connection to the natural world and the importance of preserving it. 😀❤
