************************Earth Day 2016.

Earth Day is an annual event, celebrated on April 22, on which day events worldwide are held to demonstrate support for environmental protection. It was first celebrated in 1970, and is now coordinated globally by the Earth Day Network,[1] and celebrated in more than 193 countries each year.[2]

27/03/2021, at 8.30 pm Earth Hour starts: in the dark for an hour against the climatic and biological crisis.

I agree. And you?

Driving from Calgary to Kananaskis was a big pleasure enjoying the wonderful views. Really love the road trip through the mountains, pleased by the wildlife, lakes and forest. The photo was taken on the backyards of the camping sites. The Kananaskis lake walks were great with awesome views of the lakes from the forests.

The time of the setting sun .

I dig 'til my shovel tells a secret,

Swear to the earth that I will keep it,

Brush off the dirt

And let my change of heart occur...

-- Cree Indian Proverb

 

I remember the first one well in 1970, my senior year. They let us out of school that afternoon and we picked up litter around town. Then we had a celebration for old Gaia. Great fun.

 

Earth Day is a day that is intended to inspire awareness and appreciation for the Earth's natural environment. Earth Day was founded by United States Senator Gaylord Nelson as an environmental teach-in first held on April 22, 1970. While this first Earth Day was focused on the United States, an organization launched by Denis Hayes, who was the original national coordinator in 1970, took it international in 1990 and organized events in 141 nations. Earth Day is now celebrated in more than 175 countries every year.

 

I admire, support and greatly appreciate the portions of our precious planet that we have protected for future generations to enjoy, like this view of Mt. Rainier capturing the first light on another glorious day.

 

Thanks for the taking a look, and protecting and celebrating our home.

On our Earth there are many unique places, all of which should be preserved, and the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone is unquestionably one of them.

 

This is a view from Artist Point. It has been photographed a bizzilion times. I was trying to avoid "instagram" shots on this trip, but I couldn't help myself - the location is just so impressive and special. Fortunately, I had some clouds in the sky so the canyon was relatively evenly lit. That allowed the colors to really pop. There simply is no other name for this marvel of earthly creation.

Happy Holidays My Flickr Friends...from everyone at Tralalas Diners...

Is it too much to ask for a little peace on earth?

Earth Song, Michael Jackson www.youtube.com/watch?v=XAi3VTSdTxU

 

The short film to Michael Jackson’s “Earth Song,” his best-selling single in the United Kingdom, earned Michael the Doris Day Music Award from the Humane Society’s Genesis Awards. The urgent need to address the issues facing the planet and all that inhabit it were on the forefront of Michael’s mind when he created this song and short film, issues that are even more urgent today.

 

If anything good will maybe come out of all of the crisis we face today, is a new found respect and appreciation for the uniquely beautiful planet we live on, and how all life on it is connected.

I hope we evolve from our aggressive, destructive, rapacious tendencies to a more loving, compassionate way of being in the world.

  

What about sunrise

What about rain

What about all the things that you said

We were to gain

What about killing fields

Is there a time

What about all the things

That you said were yours and mine

 

Did you ever stop to notice

All the blood we've shed before

Did you ever stop to notice

This crying Earth, these weeping shores

 

What have we done to the world

Look what we've done

What about all the peace

That you pledge your only son

What about flowering fields

Is there a time

What about all the dreams

That you said was yours and mine

 

Did you ever stop to notice

All the children dead from war

Did you ever stop to notice

This crying earth, these weeping shores

 

I used to dream

I used to glance beyond the stars

Now I don't know where we are

This hardly seems like England - yet this tropical vegetation can be found on the edge of the lake at The Vyne NT property in Hampshire. The wicker 'heron' in the background makes the whole scene seem weirder and weirder!

It would have been remiss of me not to post something for Earth Day 2024. I got to thinking about which place in Earth I have visited that has a lot of natural beauty and is relatively unspoilt. A few places came to mind but one stood out - Canada. The Canadian wilderness is something special in my opinion. I just loved the snow-covered mountains as a backdrop to crystal clear rivers and fir-lined river banks, resided over by the most spectacular cloud-filled skies.

Happy Earth Day everyone !

What do you guys think about the mask?

Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor

Tranquil reflections in autumn's colours...

"" The Middle-Earth is not ... One of my invention. Is a modernization or alteration ... of an ancient Word That meant the inhabited world From Men, oikoumene :. Because middle you thought vaguely that it was placed in the middle of the seas that surrounded it, and (in the imagination Nordic) Among the icy north and the Southern fires. "

J.R.R. Tolkien

  

Also cold days here in Italy.

Here to me little snow, but the mountains around have substantial white dusting.

The "middle-earth" has its destiny:))

Incredibly in our Alps there is no snow and ski resorts must be adapted to plan housewives snows.

While in our South, usually with mild winters, it has been flooded with so much snow to block roads, railways and planes

“The poetry of the earth is never dead.” -John Keats

 

I’ve learned to cherish wilderness, which wasn’t always the case. Growing up around it made me take it for granted. Now, I realize how much a life outdoors is a life well lived. I always feel better after getting a dose of nature.

 

The last day of summer was a perfect, mild day in the low 70’s. Autumn announced itself with gusto, dropping the temps to the 50’s the next day. Quite the entrance!
