The Story of All Stories

Our Universe is ancient and we are so very young in comparison.

Are you ready for an experience of deep space and time? Check out this video. 
Narrated by Brian Cox, Carl Sagan, and David Attenborough, and developed, edited with music, and enhanced with special effects by melodysheep, this video takes photos humanity has gathered from sources like NASA and attempts to help us understand the journey of 13.8 billion years that brought us to the current day.
For me, I watch this from time to time to contemplate the age of the Universe, and how deep time, how long it has taken for us to arrive at this moment. Humbling to be sure, but also magnificent… and it helps me to appreciate our brief existence all the more.

Such an amazing and sacred story…

What Can One Person Do About Global Warming?

For many years now, people have asked me: "What Can One Person Do About Global Warming?" Sometimes they follow with a question about my own climate engagement:  "How can you stay engaged and optimistic?" Confession: I'm not always optimistic or even hopeful. But I...
