I can summarize the week as starting with reports warning us about the seriousness and urgency of the climate crisis. The week ended with the clear message that this new US Administration takes climate change seriously and is willing to take a leading role in tackling this existential threat. Climate will remain a top priority, and I will surely keep writing about it. But for now, let’s take a breath of fresh air this weekend. Keep reading if you like, but what follows is just some late Friday evening thoughts.
A lovely article wrapping up a very busy & eventful week. Thanks for all your work this week on behalf of this beautiful planet, all the articles & inspiration. Enjoy a wonderful weekend!
Good morning Alexander. Amazing, so much information on a Global scale emerged on this Climate Summit in one place, which I never would be exposed to in a Geography class. It would have taken me years. And to be able to re-watch the sessions on Youtube, is a wonderful thing for all, as time moves on.
Through dog history and their stories one can find another way to see what has gone before. Dogs are our silent and closest allies sharing this planet for 33.000 years now, and even earlier is suggested. Learning about canine science is also a dive into a Geological world history class. Thank you for the dog story. I learned about an event from WW II.
I have visited the (Fairmont) Chateau Lake Louise at Lake Louise, I walked the trail along the lakes' edge with my dog, and would like to do so again. The Chateau was built in 1890, it's a marvel!
It is often said that “a picture is worth a thousand words” but in this case your words are so beautifully evocative of a feeling and connection to places, that the words paint the picture in full. Thank you for sharing! Would love to see more writing like this! And I agree with the others commenting, this was a lovely Saturday morning gift. Happy to be on board The Planet!
What an interesting newsletter to wake up to. I love the pictures. Looks like there's some fascinating architecture around Ottawa, thanks for sharing. Dog/pet cemeteries are very special places and the words on the grave stones are beautiful and loving. Thank you for mentioning this particular one with its fascinating history. I think it will have to go on my list of places to visit. I'm sure the interviewer appreciated the effort, but that made me smile. Hope you gave Luna some extra treats. Have a great weekend!
Every day I open my mail to this newsletter I feel like the world has a chance to heal and that opportunities for me to help will present themselves. Thanks for writing this newsletter.
It was interesting reading about WW2 and the love people have for dogs. Seems humans have a real need to have animals enrich their lives. Cats love to interrupt our lives to let us know that they are there. They are also wonderful companions. I remember the posts of your runs on the dunes. You do find wonderful places to run, enjoy, and share. Thank you.
