Halfway between Yule and Ostara, solstice and equinox, the sun sets on Imbolc - while the seeds of spring are stirring in the womb of mother Earth.
Respecting the cycle of the seasons, the position of Earth in the solar system and the place of humans within nature - these points of reference make much sense to me than any invented by patriarchal societies trying to dominate and control people.

“I will approve the export terminals on my very first day back,” Trump said, to cheers. “On day one, I will end crooked Joe Biden’s insane electric vehicle mandate.” He added: “We will drill, baby, drill.” Trump speech on climate change. Be afraid, be very afraid.

New York's old rainfall record stood for 150 years until 2021, and has now been broken three times.
Hot air holds more water vapor than cold; flooding follows fossil fuel combustion as night follows day.

The problem with going to a wader conference, filled with wonderful people as it is, is that the hope in your heart is extinguished hour by hour. So much science, so much love for birds, yet the graphs plunge ever downwards. we have to tackle the root of this. Nature education.
