Thursday got away from me. I got up, turned around, and it was evening. One of those days when nothing goes as planned. Meanwhile, a lot of remarkable things happened on this wonderful planet. Of course, not all is good. But most importantly, not all is bad.
Most of us have seen the pictures of the catastrophic flood wave in Nepal. I hope many of the missing people will be found alive. It’s devastating for this region. I continue to focus on stories that don’t make it on the front page.
Wild orchids in the UK – 100-meter robot race vs human time – Wild penguins – 15,000-year-old snake bones and so much more. This world is an interesting place. We can learn so much from each other.
Good news hardly makes it onto the front page. It’s almost like it’s not newsworthy, which doesn’t make any sense because we need to hear it. Most of us are tired of the endless wave of negativity. It took me a while to get it together today (the good news 😉). It’s an amazing list of international accomplishments.
The wildfires have now spread to Africa. These developments are terrifying, and knowing that so many still believe that climate change is just a hoax truly frightens me.
