The pollution prompted laws like the Clean Air Act in the United States, but American cities had serious air-pollution problems well into the late 20th century. These photographs from a federal project to document pollution show the smoggy skylines of major American cities (Cleveland, LA, and New York) in the early 1970s.

(male study skin and articulated skeleton at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History)
the museum's closed off for a full reno right now, but there was an event this past Monday I went to with all the different departments having tables to show off what they do. ended up having a really nice time and talks with the staff! also learned they're 3d scanning their primate skull collection and putting them online, they had this super old gorilla that was massive they were showing the equipment off on. :o

John Rogers Cox - Gray and Gold - 1942- (Cleveland Museum of Art)

* * * * *
To what does the soul turn that has no therapists to visit? It takes its trouble to the trees, to the riverbank, to an animal companion, on an aimless walk through the city streets, a long watch of the night sky.

The daimon in the heart seems quietly pleased, preferring melancholy to desperation. It���s in touch. ~ James Hillman [alive on all channels]
