Wildlife And The Natural World
The more I write about the wider world on my blog, the more it upsets me that the human species is responsible for a lot of what is happening out there.
The drought we’re having is killing wildlife, the the natural world. Birds that frequent our gardens are gone, killed due to scorching weather that is down to climate change, down to us and that is having a knock-on effect on wildlife everywhere.
How many of us, hand on heart, really think about that? I do, I always have, which is why my blog is so widespread, I don’t just write about ‘me’ or my experiences, but I also write about the things that matter to me and the things that affect us all.
As I look out to my garden, with my bird feeding station in full view, the garden used to be full of different domestic birds, now we’re lucky if we get a handful of birds frequenting the garden, and I am being generous on the handful.
Having seen a recent photograph of an albatross feeding her baby plastic, the human species is responsible for this tragedy. As humans we are contributing to the destruction of our planet and are responsible for the home of wildlife also.
Ignoring the plight of wildlife and the natural world means we’re setting ourselves up to fail also. As we ignore their plight, we are jeopardising the human species too. Please let us think about that.
We can all do small things. Feeding wildlife, allowing them to thrive in your garden, is the first step. With less open green spaces for them to be able to forage, by bring birds back into our gardens, by giving them a home, by feeding them, you’re giving the surviving birds, another crack at life.

We excavate many precious resources from the ground, but it's the resources we excavate from our own minds, which hold the most value. Our capacity to imagine, build and create is a wonder to behold, so long as it is used for the good of all humankind.

As Nicky explores, the raft works a subtle magic, opening up the wonders all around him—the animals of river and woods, his grandmother's humor and wisdom, and his own special talent as an artist. Reluctant Nicky spends a wonderful summer with Grandma who introduces him to the joy of rafting down the river near her home and watching the animals along the banks.

Thank you @moonchildcamaro A @kerryanneborgula post © 📽 Listen carefully.... 👂🏼 . . Whoever said that life underwater is a silent world clearly wasn’t talking about the constant communication between fish, dolphins,whales and virtually everything that lives down there! 🐬🐳🐋🐡🐟 In this clip you can hear the ‘chirps’ of the clownfish as it moves in and around its host anemone- it’s common for the bigger or dominant fish to make these sounds towards their subordinates to keep them in line and establish hierarchy. ( kind of like an underwater Sergeant Major 🗣) . #lifeunderwater #thenotsosilentworld #clownfish #fishesofaustralia #anemone #symbioticrelationship #thenaturalworld #underthesea #olympusunderwater #underwatervideo #thecoralsea #tropicaldiving #diveholiday #scubadiving #marinelife #clownfishsounds #findingnemo #underwatercommunication #marinescience #protectouroceans #fishofinstagram #meetyouatmanta #divestraddie #stradbrokeisland #discoverqueensland https://www.instagram.com/p/BpxKE-Hia8t/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1s7rkz34pcstj

Hello everyone and hope your week has got off to a good start. It’s the penultimate Christmas book haul on my page today and I had to pop these four nonfiction beauties together as evidence of some of the gorgeous covers out there right now. If I hadn’t gone into science as a career I think I would have done something around animal conservation. World of Wonders looks into astonishing creatures around the world. This book is a collection of essays about the natural world and how it’s inhabitants can teach, support and inspire us. Something kept drawing me towards Light Rains Sometimes Fall, a British year through Japan’s 72 seasons. I’m planning to start reading this in February when the traditional Japanese year starts and I’m really looking forward to it! I’d love to start reading more poetry and figuring out what I like and don’t like. In this short book, Chris Riddell has selected and illustrated his favourite classic and modern poems about love. Finally, I was compelled to pick up Fifty Words For Snow. Writer and Arctic traveller Nancy Campbell explores the meaning behind all the different words for snow along with all the fascinating stories behind them. I’d love to know your thoughts on any of these books or authors. Do you read a lot of nonfiction? If so, what do you like to read? Let’s have a chat in the comments and have a lovely week everyone! 🤗😘 #bookstagram #bookworm #bookhaul #beautifulbooks #gorgeousbookcovers #nonfictionbooks #worldofwondersinpraiseoffireflieswhalesharksandotherastonishments #aimeenezhukumatathil #lightrainssometimesfall #levparikian #poemstofallinlovewith #chrisriddell #fiftywordsforsnow #nancycampbell #thenaturalworld #learningfrombooks #beautifulnonfiction #tbrpilekeepsgrowing https://www.instagram.com/bibliobeth/p/CZH_KgQLHok/?utm_medium=tumblr

Going Vegan
More and more people are choosing a vegan diet. Research by the Vegan Society found the number of vegans in Great Britain increased from 150,000 in 2006 to 540,000 in 2016.
A vegan is someone who doesn’t eat or use any animal products. Unlike a vegetarian diet, where people don’t eat meat or fish, a vegan diet avoids all animal products such as dairy, eggs as well as meat and fish. Some people prefer to call this way of eating ‘a plant-based diet’.
Following a vegan lifestyle also means only using or buying cosmetics and clothes free from animal products. The environmental and ethical case for a diet free of all animal products is compelling and there are many reasons people decide to go vegan.
Some of these include:
The Environment
The United Nations says that farmed livestock accounts for 14.5% of all man-made greenhouse gas emissions. This is roughly equivalent to the exhaust emissions of every car, train, ship and aircraft on the planet. According to research from the University of Oxford, going vegan is the “single biggest way” to reduce your impact on the planet. Climate change is something that is affecting us all now. It will also affect future generations not yet born.
Animal Cruelty
Some people become vegan because they believe harming any animal is cruel. For vegans, it’s not just about animals which are killed for food, but also concerns about the way that cows and chickens used for dairy and eggs are treated, especially in large factory farms.
By way of an example, one cow gives off enough harmful methane gas in a single day to fill around 400 litre bottles. Another argument used for veganism is that meat and dairy production uses too much land and water compared to growing crops.
For Health
Some vegans say they stopped eating meat for health reasons, but some people worry about getting the right vitamins and minerals from a vegan diet. A balanced vegan diet can be enjoyed by children and adults however, it is important to plan meals to make sure that they include enough nutrients.
People think going vegan is really difficult and requires huge willpower. In fact, it doesn’t have to be hard and the easiest way to move over to a vegan diet is not to cut animal products out of your diet, but instead, crowd them out. The main task is to constantly seek out new vegan foods.
As you discover one delicious vegan food after another, this will crowd the non-vegan foods out of your diet. The more vegan foods you sample, the quicker you’ll move toward eating a primarily vegan diet.
Conclusion:
Climate change is something that is affecting us now. It will also affect future generations not yet born.
But going vegan isn’t just about us choosing to stay healthy because we’re not eating animal fat that can cause heart disease and certain cancers, but going vegan helps us tackle climate change too.
It’s something we don’t consciously think about as we go about our daily lives, but it’s real. Scientists are frantically making the point, it is important we listen. I’ve heard it said: “I won’t be around to see the effects of what I’m doing to the planet, so it won’t affect me, I don’t care”. It’s missing the point.
Although it may not directly affect you because you may not always be around, it will affect your children and your children’s children, therefore indirectly it does affect you. We are all responsible for saving the planet.

We are only ordinary people, living in an extraordinary world. But if we choose to absorb that extraordinariness, and allow it to inspire us, we too may become extraordinary. For when man takes love and nature to his heart, art is born, elevating him to the level of his spectacular surroundings. ~ Nick Adigu Burke ~ Words: Nick Adigu Burke Image Credit: tangjiao990 (Pixabay) #inspirationalquotes #thebirthofart #renaissance #beautyofnature #art #creativemind #creatingbeauty #creativity #artists #artisans #artistry #thenaturalworld #natureofart #artandnature #music #songwriting #writing #dance #poetry #poetry #painting #NickAdiguBurke #loveofart #creatingbeauty #beauty (at Holmfirth) https://www.instagram.com/p/CgSesbRsIVf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
