WHY WE NEED TO MAKE BOLD CHANGES TO OUR LANSCAPING PRACTICES
WHY WE NEED TO MAKE BOLD CHANGES TO OUR LANSCAPING PRACTICES Recently when I went on a 2000 km road trip exploring and enjoying the great variety of vistas in Ontario and Quebec, I noticed the majority of homeowners and municipalities continue to focus on creating static monocultures of clean cut Kentucky grass, rather than creating habitats for flora and fauna by allowing the areas to grow according to the whims of Mother Nature. Maybe, just maybe, Mother nature knows best! v our precious pollinators, for their continued survival, need a variety native and non-native flora growing in meadows-like areas- the greater the variety the healthier and more robust the pollinators v there is a dire need to increase nectar-brimming flora as the UN ( 2020) announced a decline of 90 % in our bumblebee population- with their fat and furry bodies bumble bees are ...
QUOTABLE QUOTE -THE LAST MAN
QUOTABLE QUOTE -THE LAST MAN "Let us… seek peace… near the inland murmur of streams, and the gracious waving of trees, the beauteous vesture of earth, and sublime pageantry of the skies. Let us leave “life,” that we may live." - Mary Shelley, The Last Man
ALGORITHM FOR COVID OUTBREAKS Canadian mathematical expert just released the algorithm for your chances of encountering someone with Covid - If you are in a group of 500 your chance of encountering someone with Covid is 87. 9 %. If you are in a crowd of 1, 000, your chances become an astounding 98.5%! So that means every time Trump supporters attend one of his rallies, they will willfully drive up the alarming number of deaths in the US - the highest in the world at over 230, 000 deaths so far and climbing daily!

MESSAGE FROM BRENT ELSEY, MEDICAL DOCTOR, MEMBER OF BARRIE DOCTORS ON CLIMATE SOLUTIONS (DOCS)
MESSAGE FROM BRENT ELSEY, MEDICAL DOCTOR, MEMBER OF BARRIE DOCTORS ON CLIMATE SOLUTIONS (DOCS) In comparing Covid to our present climate crisis, Dr. Elsey made the following observation. The climate crisis impacts will be more significant, longer in duration, and will have no easy fixes-like a vaccine. Our communities will experience extreme weather events with infrastructure destruction that will impair health care delivery, worsening food security, increased poverty, special upheaval driven by climate chaos refugees, epidemics from old pathogens like cholera and malaria. Canadian values and cooperation (I will add within Canada and with our biggest trading partner the US) are very much needed and they have been evident during the Coved crisis Innovative thinking is encouraged and supported.

THUMBS DOWN TO PEOPLE WHO LITTER DISPOSABLE MASKS THE CATASTROPHIC IMPACTS OF DISPOSABLE MASKS
THUMBS DOWN TO PEOPLE WHO LITTER DISPOSABLE MASKS THE CATASTROPHIC IMPACTS OF DISPOSABLE MASKS Most of the masks you throw away are made from polypropylene- these masks might take up to hundreds of years to decompose. If you are neglecting to dispose of them properly in containers, they could end up causing the agonizing deaths of al kinds of marine life including dolphins, sea turtle, and whales . Many people seem to be completely ignorant of the fact that anything with plastic components can survive in the environment for hundreds of years. Sooner or later discarded items end up in a lake, and then a river and all rivers flow into oceans. Globally, we are using 129 billion facemasks and 65 billion plastic gloves every single month! Divers and observers are now finding discarded gloves and mask floating underwater catastrophically affecting the marine life as they mistake the floating items for food and end up ...
