We do have a need to clean everything up. These thoughts have me echoing my 98 year old dad, I’m rather glad to be on the shorter end of this life. There’s too many problems that are too large for me.

Present biodiversity is often higher than our parents or our grandparents remember. We need to tell these inspiring stories of hope! Remember that the river caught on fire!

As Cleveland emerged as a major manufacturing center, the Cuyahoga River became heavily affected by industrial pollution, so much so that it caught fire at least 14 times. When it did so on 1969 Jun 22, news coverage of the event helped to spur the American environmental movement.
