#OldGrowth Redwood 🌲 in Humboldt County #California. 20+ foot diameter trunk dwarfs the picnic table next to it.

 My walk today featured brown #pelicans  hanging out with other #seabirds. I watched for awhile and noticed how all the various #birds 🐦‍⬛ get along peacefully.

 My #walk today. There was a bench overlooking the #ocean with a #quote from #RachelCarson, the marine biologist + author of Silent Spring. #sea #nature

“For all at last flows to the sea.
The ever flowing stream of time,
The beginning and the end.”

 Feeling discouraged or powerless about #climatechange or insufficient #climateaction?

There are some good programs to help. I’m in the middle of this one, from Joanna Macy’s The Work That Reconnects. It’s #free and called Active #Hope Training. It uses psychology, Systems theory, emergent properties and the ability of small units to influence the larger whole. 🌎
