Was talking with a friend tonight about how we the people haven't been here long at all in the scheme of things. I wonder how much longer we will and if once we leave, the planet may repair herself in time.

It’s why I wrote my song “Evelyne”: I needed to do something. It softens the feeling of helplessness and there’s always the hope that at least one person will respond with a shift in their awareness, and ultimately, their actions. The more somethings we do the better. Thank you

Good question, "what will motivate people to respond/change. As always, I think we have to add animals and other lifeforms to the equation: MILLIONS (billions?) factory-farmed animals died because of Hurricane Helene, and more because of Milton, I bet. The fires in the Amazon kill countless trees. We always look at the damage done to humans, but that's not enough.

I agree. That’s a real heartbreaker for me.

yeah i was reading about the wildfires in australia "The 2020 Australian bushfires went down in history for their catastrophic impact on wildlife. The ​​extreme bushfires tore through New South Wales and Queensland in southeastern Australia, burning 42 million acres, destroying thousands of buildings, and killing dozens of people as well as 3 billion animals, including a staggering 61,000 koalas. Australia experienced the hottest and driest year in its recorded history in late 2019 and early 2020, which was a major contributing factor to the devastating wildfires."

I read your book and I own a copy.

I think it would be cool if you would write a book about how we can heal our world as a sequel to your first book.
