Even in our highly regulated country I see people just keep nibbling away at nature. One guy nearby cut down a 100 yr old oak in his garden because he found clearing the leaves a pain. I am beginning to take that sort of stuff personally.Alan Creehttp://www.wildernessdiscovery.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6935755860899789954.post-39104096530020855412011-04-17T16:54:43.911-07:002011-04-17T16:54:43.911-07:00I found this post quite refreshing.

Didn't know about Slide.com so tried using it to create a slide show of local images but couldn't find the option to do a vertical slide like yours only horizontal - any tips? Looking at a smallholding tomorrow!Garethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06944609913777580493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6935755860899789954.post-62333415741815200592011-04-04T14:31:29.065-07:002011-04-04T14:31:29.065-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Garethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06944609913777580493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6935755860899789954.post-79122370025106141692011-04-02T00:22:33.936-07:002011-04-02T00:22:33.936-07:00Many positive influences just this week.

People are now working with the natural properties to build systems and everyone is doing it. Take Ellen MacArthur and her closed loop systems modelling. There are leaders appearing in so many places. I do think that the situation in Japan is terrible even if the sharks are now happier, it is terrifying and there are many challenges at the moment. <br />By the way I am noticing far more types of bees now that I am more aware of them, here in SouthWest France than I noticed before thank you for that. And I rescued one last week that had seemed to be exhausted. ..carolmiershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11848645276679500573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6935755860899789954.post-65249426702549473712011-04-01T04:14:33.114-07:002011-04-01T04:14:33.114-07:00Hello dear Bee The Change Bridgit. Thanks for shar...Hello dear Bee The Change Bridgit. Thanks for sharing your positive and nourishing reflections. I think I'll have to put a link to your blog next to Mark's on my website. Between you both you write on the positive side of what I think and feel. I agree with 99% of what you both say and yet usually feel too overwhelmed on the negative implication of our attitudes and actions within the world to write anything positive. So in spite no doubt of acutely feeling the pains of destruction and of the culture of death thanks for focusing on the positive!<br /><br />Great bee slides by the way!!

I feel the same but also think nature will have the final word on thing for this planet.<br /><br />I wrote a short Blog yesterday also about being pro active and not sitting back just watching thing crumble.<br /><br />http://ourworldexplored.blogspot.com/2011/03/blog-10-model-aircraft-v-nature-reserve.html?spref=twAnthony Carrollhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14120424515566110428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6935755860899789954.post-69549603842791971942011-04-01T03:10:19.107-07:002011-04-01T03:10:19.107-07:00Hello Bee,

Thank you so much for sharing them.<br />It is as if many people are in a trance & cannot see even see, let alone acknowledge the hand that feeds them!! It makes it very difficult to share any thoughts with others, as most don't want to hear it. <br />I too feel so sad about what we are doing to mother earth, she gives us life and all we do in return is destroy her. Even in her darkest hour, she is still loving us & providing for us with all her glorious abundance!<br />With all of this going on it is hard to stay positive sometimes, but we must stay in love whatever happens. Love energy is 100 times stronger than hate & we can all turn this around if we support one another.<br />I will be joining you to help in sending love & healing to the Fukushima waters today and thank you again for sharing your thoughts.<br />Mel - Bornemouth xxxxCREATIVESOLEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03666868444443553957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6935755860899789954.post-6420637589700385602011-04-01T02:48:32.091-07:002011-04-01T02:48:32.091-07:00I do find it heartily depressing, and I think its ...I do find it heartily depressing, and I think its so much more obvious when you live in the countryside. In the towns you're much more sheltered as to what happens.<br />everyday I see wildlife sprayed, shot and trapped because they are "in the way".<br />For example we had a badger in the hen orchard, did we go nuts and think about killing them (illegal in the UK but a look on youtube shows that many other countries oftebn dig out and kill badgers). Nope we didn;t, I beefed up the fence, made sure no food was left out and let the hens out later and put them to bed earlier. No more badger visits! And thats only one example... I could write a whole post :P xKellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11198712369425823683noreply@blogger.com
