The real problem is that we’re forgetting what biodiversity even looks like. Take Europe for example, bisons used to roam Germany, wild salmon used to criss-cross rivers, Portugal had a forest similar to that of Madeira island, the UK had a temperate rainforest… What do modern day Europeans even know about the ecosystems that once thrived on those lands? Many don’t even know the difference between a forest and a plantation…Sadly, after generations and centuries of degradation we have collectively forgotten what Europe’s landscapes even looked like let alone what wildlife roamed.

⚖️Legal action alert⚖️

Consumer goods giant Unilever is the subject of a complaint by Filipino communities, on account of the enormous pollution in the country caused by the company's non-recyclable plastic sachets.

This is a landmark pollution complaint before the Pollution Adjudication Board of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources in the Philippines.

The sachets are overwhelming waterways and causing numerous harms, including flooding and health risks for fisherfolk and waste-workers.

Filipino communities are demanding reparations, administrative fines for Unilever, and an immediate cease-and-desist order.

🏭Big corporations are all too often causing devastating pollution like this through their business practices, and should be held to account.

Earth Day…Does it bring us closer to nature or further from it? Dedicating one day a year to nature, earth, the planet we live on…seems ridiculous. A way to remove the human existence even more from nature. To create more division between ‘Earth’ and ‘humans’. Forgetting that we are actually earthlings. And it’s not the planet that needs any saving…it’s the humans that need saving from other greedy humans. As Mother Earth, she’ll survive with us or without us! 🌿

“The idea that you can have fun in such a desperate and daunting planet seems contra intelligent, but nevertheless we are just human creatures, we do like happiness, and we have to find that in amongst this very fraught life we’re leading, waking the planet up and converting it against all odds into a global community that, above all, respects the planet and life on it and works to ensure that it’s here forever.”

What better way to celebrate than with

In our eco-story “Kiwi of the Sea” writer .salt.sun explains the hypocrisy behind the New Zealand government, a country that prides itself on natural beauty, that technically cherishes the Pahu dolphin as an extension of family, yet fails to protect its habitat from fishing and sailing races.

I remember when I first heard about the concept of ayni. So simple, so beautifully inspired by the laws of nature, so true. So applicable to everything even our relationships.

Make sure your actions are in reciprocity with what you’re receiving, be it another human, a tree, or a village. It’s the simplicity of harmony, the laws by which so many of our natural processes abide to.
