The world is such a beautiful place and all its lovely fauna and flora make it even more beautiful. If humans could only pause to appreciate it, and then adjust their attitude to all its living creatures, loving and protecting them, we would be living in paradise.

The moral of the story: don’t trust that animals are treated humanely EVER. Not when they say so Not when they’re organic Not when they are grass fed Not when they gave a pretty picture on the package. All animal slaughter and their life leading up to slaughter is despicable ! Source: Vox

A forest 🌲🌳 is teeming with extraordinary and fascinating animals, insects, birds, reptiles and other life we take for granted. If only for a moment, what if we could appreciate what we have and take steps to protect it. Please share 🪾🍃🌿🌾

From pages 38-45 of this remarkable book is a section on journalism that is so urgent, so compelling, so precise in identifying some of the major flaws and failures of mainstream journalism as an industry at this moment in time, that I wish I could make all American journalists read it.
