Before the Deluge

let the music keep our spirits high

Dear Greta,

have you noticed the snails? they're huge! washed down through millennia...do you think it's the climate...maybe I'll grab a couple for dinner tonight before the rains come...at least they're grass fed! escargot cooked avec du pain et du beurre and du vin...c'est bon!!

hey, how about a new slogan "Ask Not What the Climate Can Do for You, Ask What You Can Do for the Climate" haha

but Greta, there's a couple things bothering me...poisoning in the name of bionativism...check this out from Arizona: LEES FERRY – The National Park Service will poison a Colorado River side channel below Glen Canyon Dam to remove fish that threaten native species, the agency announced. Can you believe that??

and people are afraid of eucalyptus trees because they fall sometimes...have they ever seen a redwood, I wonder??

and shooting animals from helicopters...the feds (Forest Service) and non-profits are killing 150 black cows in the New Mexico Gila National Forest wilderness..they cooked up a story about the dangers posed by hoofed animals trampling creeks and scaring hikers, yet in Santa Barbara, they're using sheep to eat invasive weeds on the San Marcos Preserve, the same sheep they killed on the Channel Islands for being non-native!

Greta, I think someone is trying to pull the wool over our eyes!
