In its own way, the postscript to your newsletter reinforces angst for the future.

Inherently, we all know what is at stake. And yet, show me one politician globally who is prepared to lay EVERYTHING on the line to allow this planet (and us) to breathe.

Outside my window, it is bucketing down thanks to a weather system entirely reinforced by climate change (La Nina married with the Indian Ocean Dipole). And whilst pollies run round saying they're diverting funds to help flooded communities and flooded foodbowls in Australia, it's too little and at best temporary.

I think TBH, that we the living community who love our environments really need to heavy-up. It's not about labels, it's truly about action - even in our own little communities and backyards. Every day we need to throw seeds around, plant trees - whatever it takes, remembering all the time that from little things, big things grow.

Contrary to popular sociopolitical trends, dualism is not inherently evil. If you haven’t read it, you might find Eliade’s “The Sacred and the Profane’ interesting.
