Warm Sunshine

The last moments of warm sunshine as sunset approaches.
A bit like social media pre-covid, it was heading downhill, now its just completely smashed by darkness.
Suggest me some new social media friends, ones with nice pictures, thought provoking topics and sentences not punctuated by instagram hashtags and wanky stories..
surely not too much to ask right 🙂

We speak for the trees.

We speak for the trees.
Interesting week for tassie and the forests down there with the Bob Brown Foundation which is trying to end native forest logging – I don’t really understand all the legal arguments to be honest, but its nice to see a voice for the trees and one that has some grunt.
Here’s todays fun fact – did you know that the Dr Seuss book ‘Lorax’ was banned in a school in California because it unfairly portrayed the logging industry 😉 and .. get this.. a rebuttal story was made from a hardwood company..
“When the last tree is cut, the last fish is caught, and the last river is polluted; when to breathe the air is sickening, you will realize, too late, that wealth is not in bank accounts and that you can’t eat money”
here’s a picture of an enlightened tree, in a area of NSW where most the trees seem to be nothing but skeletons of their former selves.
