Sitting Pretty Without Us

WOBBLY but with elegant touches intact, the tattered old chair on the road seemed to suggest that I pause and digest what all those traffic fumes have been saying. Humankind is as capable of extinction as any creature and polluting ways need to end if we hope to survive. Sustainability on Earth is rapidly fraying but flowers still bloom and the sun rises and sets so we choose to forget that the human story might not last and we could run out of time. Sometimes I wonder ... what would the world be like free of our kind.

Because the state of our planet is the most pressing issue of our time, link up and learn about the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Report.
