Another semester comes to a close and what have I learned? Plenty!
After my online Natural Resource Management class at Santa Rosa Junior
College I can no longer remain a passive bystander when it comes to the health
of our planet, and its future…our future.
I
will continue my plight to leave a softer carbon footprint on this earth and
the lessons learned throughout this course will remain front and center with me
as I go forward from here. “Consciousness
Runs Deep” reminds me just how critical the health of our streams are. To us and to so many other species. Watch
the video World Population and you’ll understand how critical population
control is to the future of our planet. In
“The Story of Bottled Water” with Annie Leonard, I was forced to take my
blinders off regarding our drinking water and the myths about bottled
water. Wow, are we slaves to the
marketing campaigns when it comes to water! I
no longer look at a forest as a remote corner of the world that doesn’t much
affect me or my life. Seeing the Forest on vimeo.com taught me
why. Everybody
knows Smokey the Bear, and his vigilant anti-forest fire campaigns. But find out why fire is actually
instrumental for some and even necessary for other trees to proliferate in some
forests. Learn more about personal
preparedness at readyforwildfire.org
