Eulogy for my grandfather
Eulogy for my grandfather I want to tell you about something that happened a couple weeks ago. I meditated in a creek for a few hours, standing completely still. I reached the point where I felt like I was the creek—I was the piece of driftwood, the water, the fireflies, and the trees.

The Rise of Global Warming
Unseen trends in future climate research will play a major role in the next climate change assessment of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) which is expected to be published next year. There is a great deal of scientific consensus that global warming has increased over the past decade and that this increase is due to the production of man-made gas (90-100% depending on the specific question, time, and method of making published examples all astronomers agree). Despite political controversies over climate change, the IPCC concluded with an important report dated 27 September 2013 that scientists are convinced of the link between human activity and global warming.

Global warming and species extinction
While many species migrate to cooler climates to escape the heat, researchers have found that many species of animals cannot spread far enough to avoid extinction. New research shows that many species of animals are not able to spread enough to avoid extinction because of their speed of movement.

NEZNANI
Humans do not rule my Earth. This is the planet of the plants. We are the sole admirers of the sun. The sun -- a star so generous to bring us to life, yet so eager to withdraw us from the joys which we have only recently been introduced to. It seems as though we are introduced to love simply to make us suffer in an abrupt end. But please remember I am not a human with such delicate feelings, for humans do not rule my Earth.

Fighting and Battling Climate Change
Why do politicians use such words as "fight" and "battle" when it comes to overturning the ravages of the decades of neglect of the earth's biosphere? Are they speaking without thinking as many politicians seem to do or do they really think they are fighting and battling? The words fighting and battling are nonsense phrases in the context of the climate. In other words, bullshit. Mean nothing talk. Empty rhetoric.
