While H5N6 hasn’t shown the ability to transmit efficiently from human-to-human, its high (roughly 50%) Case Fatality Rate – combined with its continual evolution – puts this virus near the top of our avian flu watch list.

Bench Sitting Nature Watch

On a sunny autumn morning we set out, my soon to be three grandson Sam and I, to the Lime Hollow Nature Center near Cortland for an adventure. For the first time I brought a newly purchased iPhone 7 instead of the usual slr camera. The phone can be carried in a pocket and is simpler to us, to allow me to give full attention to Sam.

At the start is a large, today sunlit, field with an “art trail.” There are various anthropomorphic transformations on the trees and a very large sculpture of a blue face. Here is a tree from another place near here, to give you an idea.

I do not point out the tree faces to Sam. His Mom likes to say he enjoys being frightened and, when the blue face came into view, he turned back and said, “home.” Sam was mildly anxious, so I…

Le génocide des peuples autochtones en Amérique du Nord AVANT se produit en Amérique du Sud MAINTENANT !

«Des sociétés minières aurifères, forestières et l’agro-industrielles ont décidé de raser nos terres avec d’énormes machines.
La forêt saigne, je le sens dans mon cœur. Ils versent plus de poison sur la terre que d’or. Ils sont comme des morts-vivants, couverts de boue dorée.
Ce que vous faites changera le monde entier et détruira notre maison – et cela…

Prophecy about black snake — LANDBACK Friends


When I first heard the Lakota prophecy about the black snake, I thought it was amazing that a sacred message from so long ago was coming true. What that said about Indigenous spirituality. I thought the image of the black snake was so powerful. A symbol of the evils of the wanton disregard for Mother[…]
Truth and Reconciliation — Sustainable Chilliwackian




What I’m about to say is probably going to piss a lot of white people off. These children who are buried in unmarked graves at residential schools in BC….they’re not that big of a deal. That’s right. Hundreds of children stolen from their families, forced to abandon their culture and language, mistreated (or worse) to[…]

Once again, by way of disclaimer, the overall goal is now to explain why we need both equ. + justice, & why in 4 phases. This chapter is part of showing what Phases I-IV could look like as potential roadmap for a fully inclusive society for all of us. This vision is laid out in the hope that All HumanKind will eventually have each person’s basic needs met, without taking anything from anyone, and without violence, intimidation, nor coercion of any kind.
