Largest Climate March in History Coming in September, Calling for Us To Change Our Approach To Energy and the Environment While There’s Still Time
It’s because we’re all aware of our own mortality that we endeavor to make the most of our days here on Earth. I’m reminded about this, as it’s the 423rd anniversary of the baptism of poet Robert Herrick (pictured), who wrote:
“Gather ye rosebuds while ye may, / Old Time is still a-flying, / And this same flower that smiles to-day / To-morrow will be dying.”
In a similar vein, we need to acknowledge that we really are running out of time if we’re going to make a difference in the outcome of humankind vis-à-vis the vast environmental damage we’re wreaking on our home planet. Fortunately, tens of millions of people all over the world are working hard to develop and implement solutions.
One way anyone can make a difference is to be a part of the “People’s Climate March,” September 21, in New York City.
