Earth day was “Yesterday” in the Pacific Island Region
Earth day is “Today” still in parts of the USA
Tomorrow Earth Day may be, “Every Day”
Wish it could be “everywhere” in the world, for “everyone”
Community based projects, nature based solutions, can rise– as can we now
To the conservation and focus on renewal of the land,
Regenerative agriculture and old growth trees
To the islands mangroves and large ocean states
To the pristine purity abundant flow of the water
To the transformation, health and protection of all species
Universal policy with Law of the Sea, sustainable fisheries
The ocean dolphins, whales, and all biodiversity
Wars heat fuels prompt action,
Where can we move hearts to have more compassion
From Volcano Goddess Pele’s tears or lava stands of hair
Fire will never say that it has enough
Remember justice, is just us
May we have miracles of peace and action in the works

Suzanne Maxx: Response to Bill McGibben’s share above
We can only hope that the silence from leaders to guide the transition to electrify, our homes, and vehicles is to create the tension needed for all to rise, beyond what divides….Being independent with our energy and moving towards natural based solutions is now in the collective narrative. Towards peace, we have each do what we can to grow more of our own, or at least keep it local, what we eat
Here is one more article by Bill McGibben, whose title I could echo ”Earth Day is a Time for…Anger; (To motivate us to action)

Paul Winter’s and friends’ music and visions
Paul Winters and Henrique Eisenmann recorded a new piece, sent this and I’m sharing it with you all for Earth Day, and share it with everyone as a free download here;
https://paulwinter.bandcamp.com/track/ukraine-spring
We have titled it “Ukraine Spring,” to honor the people and their land. We imagined a piece that was both bittersweet and hopeful, a journey of reflection, that finally arrives at a quiet place, in the morning sunshine, infused with the promise of springtime.
