Some great points, as always, from Thomas Friedman.
- "Mother Nature was not impressed by Trump or his markets. Mother Nature, alas, doesn't "open" her workday at 9:30 a.m. or close it at 4 p.m. Monday through Friday and then take weekends off."
- "There is no herd immunity to climate change. There are only endless impacts on the herd."
- "Manage the unavoidable so that you can avoid the unmanageable."
I'd like to share a recent blog post I wrote. There are so many things we need to learn from this COVID-19 crisis, including some things we need to build upon, and build upon
in the right way. That way is with an understanding of Nature's systems, the importance of community, and the necessity for diversity at all levels.
