My thoughts about what’s happening in my neighborhood as machines are taking down wildlife habitat in the back of me. My heart is breaking at the moment. I knew this day was coming but it caught me by surprise yesterday afternoon as I was taking my dog Beni for a walk.

Our shortsightedness in undervaluing wildlife habitat, of seeing development as progress, and of not recognizing the importance of the natural world is mindboggling and so upsetting to me. All of this to say that please, please, if you have land, plant native trees and shrubs. Be intentional about reweaving the web of interspecies relationships that are so critical to our resilience.
