…or Casey & the Surfmen!
It’s worth remembering that the decimation of our
environment will not kill us in 100s or 1000s it will wipe us out. And yes,
that is a heavy message to keep pushing when everything else is pretty awful
and Johnson’s cabal of incompetents is trying to shift the blame for their
disastrous handling of a predictable pandemic onto young people – as if they
haven’t suffered enough.
However, this week I’m reminding readers of my audio
story poem about ordinary people – us - repairing and saving the world. It’s a gentle piece,
easy to listen to and - while I won’t give away the ending – positive. Do check
it out on bandcamp. You can listen for free OR buy and download a copy if you feel like supporting an
artist you know - MOI. Also, if you purchase on Friday October 2nd
– this Friday – bandcamp are again waving their commission to support artists like me
who have seen little or no work since February.
And for those who balk at the notion of having to think about the ongoing threat to human existence amid an immediate threat, please try and remember these are not two separate issues. Eco-scientists have long been warning that damage to ecosystems could be a major trigger for new pathogens jumping species and as this mad government pushes ahead with HS2 and relaxing planning laws, Britain remains one of the least wooded countries in Europe where towns and cities regularly have poor air quality
