    Missing out on everything there is to see and experience in the world around us is no life at all, and sure route to not caring about what happening in the world, and passively enabling its destruction

    It has been good to regular practice this with a conscious mindset and take a breath and/or a pause when conversations might be challenging, uncomfortable or sometimes unexpected.

    What did you watch, and what was the most important thing you learned in the documentaries you watched? How does what you learned connect to your understanding of climate change and Earth Month?

    Watched the suggested series of Nobel Peace Prize-inspired Short films. Each one uniquely compelling, whether about the impact of mines, amputation, human displacement or trying to cross divides with music, I think what struck me was the resilience of the people featured, striving for a way forward in face of destruction or trauma, which is apt for climate change, and the perseverance and determination needed to turn the tide

    Why is it important to take care of pollinators? Do you have a favorite pollinator?

    Who knew there were so many! Great website here: Who are our pollinators? » All-Ireland Pollinator Plan As to my favourite, i would have said Bee but now I know butterflies are included i'm inclined to switch my answer!

      It is a great site!. We're hopefully getting Cherrywood added to the All-Pollinator map in the next month or so, and we already have Arklow signed up to the All-Pollinator plan since last year.

    My brother keeps me with the most beautiful sunrises from Florida, and I thought this saying he included was perfect for our challenge.
