The challenges facing our world with the climate crisis are urgent and critical, but we are not helpless. Making our household less wasteful is in our control. Supporting groups in our community that are working to make our neighborhoods more sustainable is manageable. Participating in at least one action items that demand larger global changes and keeps pressure on our leaders to enact those chances is something we can fit into a month’s schedule.

During this time people are discovering the magic of observing birds or as the pros call it – birding. One very profound thing to do this month to nurture, understand, and protect these wonderful creatures is to go outside and find them. Download a bird app and venture outside your home, into your neighborhood or into a local nature area. Look for the birds.

Earth Day occurs this week. It’s an urgent one because of this devastating pandemic. Covid-19 has, in a warped way, also made me hopeful that humanity can make the changes necessary to address climate change. We can stay/work at home more often and create more with less. It is also a special Earth Day for me because it is the release of my book, Plastic Girl.
