"Libraries are uniquely positioned to act as catalysts for climate action by fostering social cohesion, an important factor in effectively responding to climate change impacts. 

Through diverse programming — such as workshops that bring community members together, services that connect individuals with vital resources, and welcoming spaces that encourage interaction across social divides — libraries cultivate the collaboration and collective energy essential to turning climate action plans into reality. 

Their presence generates the trust, buy-in, and partnerships necessary to drive meaningful environmental change." - EarthDay.org

Henry Update:

The new combo of meds seem to be making a difference, and now we have a schedule (nicely typed up by the vet staff, thankuverramuch!)

Henry and I had a delightful nap together on Tuesday afternoon.

Let's Hop!

Today is the anniversary of the first Lunar Landing: July 20, 1969.

I remember watching the TV, seeing the grainy black and grey images.

Humankind can be so amazingly smart, and so stupid.

Hoping that the human race can make amends for the disasters that they've caused to Mother Earth and her children.

Going to the Moon shouldn't be about looking for the next place to build houses for humans, but about learning that our planet is the best one we'll ever have, and that we need to take care of it.
