I am the Soil, and I am alive.

Another brilliant film by Conservation International. Edward Norton is the soil. Turning to dust.

The Redwood Is Speaking, and Joni Mitchell warned us.

What would a redwood's perspective be, given its life span?

Joni Mitchell warned us 45 years ago about what we were doing.

Big Yellow Taxi
Joni Mitchell

They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
With a pink hotel, a boutique
And a swinging hot SPOT
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got ‘til it's gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

They took all the trees
And put them in a tree museum
Then they charged the people
A dollar and a half just to see 'em
Don't it always seem to go,
That you don't know what you've got ‘til it's gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

Hey farmer, farmer
Put away that DDT now
Give me spots on my apples
But LEAVE me the birds and the bees
Please!
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got ‘til its gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

Late last night
I heard the screen door slam
And a big yellow taxi
Come and took away my old man
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got ‘til it's gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

I said
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got ‘til it's gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

Mother Nature is Speaking

"One way or the other, your actions will determine your fate. Not mine. I am nature. I will go on. I am prepared to evolve. Are you?"

One round heart, One round home- "Apocalypse Lullaby" by the Wailin' Jennys

Hurricanes will come...

Apocalypse Lullaby
Annabelle Chvostek

Hurricanes will come
Earthquakes break the walls
Oceans rise
Empires fall

Enter world, light unshown
Follow heart, follow home
Here we are, light unshown
One round heart, one round home

Spin the speed of light
Tetrahedron blue
One last paradise
You can make for you

Enter world, light unshown
Follow heart, follow home
Here we are, light unshown
One round heart, one round home

Faster than a ship
Further than bomb
See the glowing grid
Send love throughout the throng

Enter world, light unshown
Follow heart, follow home
Here we are, light unshown
One round heart, one round home
