My Passion

My passion isn’t the in-your-face flaming kind, more like glowing, red hot coals!

My feet are firmly planted in the soil and I need a natural environment around me. Despite all the “amazing images” of outer planets I think Earth is the most astonishing of them all and I wish that more nations were committed to looking after it rather than exploiting and polluting it. My own country is completely demolishing entire ranges of hills in the pursuit of wealth from minerals.

It’s easy to be overwhelmed by the enormity of what is happening but I believe everyone can do their bit to make a difference. I try to improve my immediate environment by planting and tending, recycling whatever materials I can, making use of the things I have for as long as possible before replacing them and making a conscious effort to limit my contribution to landfill.

I’m afraid that if nothing is done to remediate the damage being caused by “human civilization” Earth will become a planet no longer able to sustain currently living things from tiny bugs to fish, forests and human beings.

I’m a sister, wife, mother, grandmother, auntie and friend. I prefer to be outside and am interested in photography, nature and different cultures. I believe everything on this earth has a right to be here but some things and some people would be happiest if their space was far away from mine. (Flies and biting bugs take note!) I don’t like housework and think dust is Nature’s way of saying, “This is my space, I was here first.” View all posts by macmsue
