A Simple Tweak to Drastically Improve Life on Earth for Every Single Species..

Although I’m 'in recovery' from the Comments sections of mass-media sites like ‘Instagram’ & ‘X’, I'm a dedicated 'Deep Green' activist/ environmentalist who's always seeking opportunities to broaden my Nature knowledge & disseminate Science-based solutions to the biodiversity / climate / extinction crisis we humans have brought on ourselves..


So far, hands down the most critical component of saving Life on Earth is CONSERVATION - & restoration of Nature's functions AT ALL COSTS. “Giving up” is not an option! Leaving our future up to the evil last-century perpetual-growth leaders, moneymongers, oligarchs & space-travel charlatans already holding us back from making a doable hopeful future is SELFISH & SUICIDAL — & tells our kids life’s not worth saving!


But it’s delusional thinking we can accomplish this & set a better course for humanity while continuing to blindly plunder & rape healthy intact ecosystems just to maintain the illusion that our lavish wasteful lifestyles are flawless ‘sacred cows’ that can’t be improved. They can & musT - by deconstructing / laying bare / UPDATING perceived factors of the Good Life, STARTING WITH OUR UNNECESSARY USE OF NON-HUMAN ANIMALS!


Science shows animal agriculture is the 2nd-largest contributor to human-made GHGs after fossil fuels — & leading cause of deforestation, air/water pollution & biodiversity loss, comprising 44% of anthropogenic methane emissions — 34X more potent than C02 — & 44% of nitrous oxide (the most potent GHG) AND is the largest contributor to global water pollution. That’s just part of its heavy footprint..


I.E. We drastically need to lighten the strain animal ag puts on Earth’s finite resources. Replacing dairy/meat with plant-sourced foods would reduce C02 emissions alone from the industry by 96%, to just 73 pounds of CO2e.


Not only that, but plant-based diets are much healthier for humans, with our long winding intestines (opposite of carnivores’ short GI tracts) — ask any doc/naturopath! I switched long ago, & it’s easily the best change I’ve ever made.


We can’t just IGNORE the Science of humans' corrosive contributions to the current biodiversity & climate crises.  Saying “it’s too late anyway”, & letting Govts get away with murder serving last-century polluting extractive industries instead of people, is a morally destitute way of sabotaging all efforts to ensure a liveable future. We must find ways around mainstream media's [MSM's] HOLD on our knowledge, to hone healthier, values-based dynamics more in tune with Nature -- not just for us but for our non-human creature cousins facing imminent extinction if we don't prioritize conservation of their natural wild habitats.


This is basic stuff we shoulda learned at school - but didn't, since Big Ag & Big Oil co-opted schools' curriculae (the latest pamphlets of which, touting meat & dairy as "humane" & LNG as a "sustainable" fuel, are almost laughably chock-full of falsehoods & propaganda that fail to form foundational understanding of the natural world!) We must get back to caring for - stewarding - our natural ecosystems, as 1st Nations did here for millenia...


Ironically, our present Govt leaders are in many ways much more corrupt than before, pretending to serve BCers/ Canadians while catering to mega-corporations' bottom lines. Fair? No: FAIL 


So it's left to us to galvanize & make the needed changes to prevent the worst of catastrophic climate change, together with the scientists who have the answers.  Going vegan is a stellar way to free ourselves from dependancy on exploitation, extraction & the obsolete economics of unlimited growth -- & transition into circular economies prioritizing "Sowing What You Reap" powered by renewable energy while protecting BC's ancient rainforests balancing the world's climate.  That's the responsible legacy to leave our kids - & their kids' kids - if we wanna "do the right thing" & secure their liveable future..


(The alternative is frankly unthinkable.)





ABOVE:  Shots of Sumallo Grove old-growth forest biĆ“me in Manning Park, which is critically at risk of species extirpation, spreading wildfires & worse if we stay on this same-old Road to Ruin pushed by the nihilist neoliberal duopoly (CONS/ LIBS/ REPEAT) for so long, the stuff is almost branded on our brains:  MAD RESPECT for Indigenous 1st Nations who kept their culture/ language/ traditions alive through decades of res-school abuse/ indoctrination:  THAT is strength - the power of stewardship to unite people in a common goal, with noone left behind..

Too bad FN weren't awarded the honour (slog?) of schooling the colonialist settlers illiterate in the language(s) of the totem poles.  But instead of resentment for their lawless oppressors, to this day First Nations of all tribes have largely succeeded in maintaining their cultural integrity of knowledge-holders from whose values we could learn to live in harmony with Nature's laws, to flourish for generations well into the future...

A TRUMPiAN TRaVESTY (updated poem I began Aug.'20 - last edited Jan.'25)


WHAT's HAPS in da USA y'aLL?
(Here's my take)

a C.H.A.R.A.D.E.
PRoudLy fabRicaTed in the USA
by MAGA-pushing cuLTisT cLones
in whose TRaiLeR TRAP is perched their
ECO-CRASHING KING OF CRAP
(LowesT Low-LiFe POTUS),
his GREED PARADE seen TRoLLing streets, Tweeting Tweets, RoLLing over
Rights of Peops.. & TRaiLing TRash thru
eveRy STATE he meeTs:

(A cavaLcade of CREEPS)

But that was THEN & this, retardedly, is NOW:
  For better? NO FOR WORSE!
1st TeRM was just a dRiLL to soften
 all the No-Minds of the 50 states
 (while GUTTing eveRy Eco-Law T could
 lay his tiny paws on)
& he found it'S'EEAZY bein' Top Dog as a
wiLLing COG
in a system gone insanely ROGUE!

But HOW could any self-respecting NaTioN
LET this MENACE even RUN THE RACE
with all the skills & talent
that it takes?
(Ask an average Joe-Bob & you'll hear
"Trump is funny!" OR "he's COOL!"
but NOT ONE SANE/SMART REASON
offered by those FOOLS!)

Either most Americans are LAZY,
or they've Lost the yen (and/or ability)
to discern what's CRAZY -
(Why else would they be HAPPY to be Led like Lemmings
down the Road to Ruin by a vengeful EX
with an axe to grind
who'd stop @ nothing to advance
the sick ambitions of his mind?)

Thanks to the GOP, the Orange Fop had his circus reinstalled under the Big Top
using billion$ from Musk to make the
MAGA message POP -
And anyone who stopped to question
THIS old F'ELon's 2nd RUN
might upset the apple-cart & have their
iLL-goT gains
D-ROP'!

Seems Americans WERE PRIMED
to bend into submission to the new-age FascisTs
of the modern FAR RIGHT-WING
(the corporate 'elite' of criminals who run things -
Culprits of the Climate Change that's put
us aLL in periL -
WHO SHOULD BE MADE TO PAY!)

Guess THAT's a pipe-dream, now that DT's back to lay Round 2 on all his 'frenemies'
the Dems, who coulda SHAMED the
Orange CLown into obLivion
- BUT INSTEAD made K's campaign (of All Things Nice) more fuel for T's misogyny!
Dems' sudden moral high-ground
& reluctance to fighT
Meant LOSING the election of their life..

So half the States at leasT
now live in fear of 4 long years
with that dishonest PUTZ as Prez, hoping
that he'll bungle - Big-Time - AS B4
(Nothing like experience to teach us what to plan for!)
Since they can't go back & make it right
it's turned into
a truly Trumpian catastrophe.


(I couldn't make this stuff up if I TRIED!)
 Now don'T y'all say I've ever LiED..
