The sky in the painting
wears a bruise of smoke,
a dark reminder
of what burns beyond the frame.

The monsoon season has begun the second-hottest and second-driest on record in Arizona, where heat records
are frequently broken last year. The last two years have seen fewer desert downpours, an important source of
summer river flow.
“We’re dealing with a rapidly changing climate that is becoming, overall, more dry and varied and warmer,”
said Scott Wilbor, an ecologist in Tucson who studies desert river ecosystems, including the San Pedro.
“We are in uncharted territory.” Click here to learn about the importance of Sonoran Desert rivers.

Climate change coupled with a pandemic
has made life more precious
opening the door to more pursuits
always looking, listening, and learning
creating new encounters with living —
“art is the residue from
the encounter with living.”

We are the mirror as well as the face in it.
We are tasting the taste this minute
of eternity. We are pain
and what cures pain, both. We are
the sweet, cold water and the jar that pours.

Climate Change — Computer Painting by kenne
“The Earth, our home, is beginning to look more and more like an immense pile of filth.
In many parts of the planet, the elderly lament that once beautiful landscapes are now covered with rubbish.”
“The environment is a common patrimony of all humanity and is everyone’s responsibility. Whoever possesses a part of it should merely administer it for the common good. If we do not do this, our conscience is burdened with the weight of denying the existence of others.”
— Pope Francis

Climate Change: Do You Feel The Heat Leave a comment
“Climate Change: Do You Feel The Heat?” — Image by kenne
If you ask me
to show you God,
I will point to the sun,
or a tree,
or a warm.
But if you say,
“You mean, then,
that God is the sun,
the tree,
the worm,
and all other things?” —
I shall have to say
that you have
missed the point
entirely.
— Alan W. Watts

The New Condition Of Our Condition 4 comments
“The Fire Debt Is Finally Coming Due” 5 comments
David Fitzsimmons, Arizona Daily Star
“Much of the West is now a giant tinderbox, literally ready to combust. Yet thanks to fire suppression, the consequences have been postponed for decades.
“When you look at the long record, you see fire and climate moving together over decades, over centuries, over thousands of years,” said pyrogeographer Jennifer Marlon of Yale University, who earlier this year co-authored a study of long-term fire patterns in the American West.
“Then, when you look at the last century, you see the climate getting warmer and drier, but until the last couple decades the amount of fire was really low. We’ve pushed fire in the opposite direction you’d expect from climate,” Marlon said.
The fire debt is finally coming due.”
