SFR Happy Earth Day!

[Flymph]

One of the very cool things about meeting new fly fisher people is that we all seem to share a common bond when it comes to preserving the resource. In that spirit of mutual respect for the environs that sustain us all, have a Happy Earth Day.

I'm a big fan of Earth.

I'm a big fan of Earth.

It sustains me.

 

[Dr. Magill]

I'm a big fan of Earth.

Me too
I have a part-time place there

 

[JACKspASS]

Earth first!! We'll destroy the other planets later!

Well, today is my Bearth Day. 68 years old.

If you ain't careful, you'll turn into an old man. Me, I'm already an Old Man.

I should be ok! But just to be safe, I'm not going into a political carreer...apparently that ruins your memory! LOL!

Comedy on parade. Gifts can come from the most unexpected places.

 

[Mossback]

Hard to outdo the space lasers...
Or so I thought.

I should be so lucky! I aspire to being an old man someday.

Earth Day is a great excuse to contribute to a local preservation/defense org, like TU or Deschutes River Alliance.

On a related note: How do you deal with the sense of overwhelm when it comes to fighting ecocide?

Always thought this was a fitting Earth Day quote: “There are no passengers on spaceship earth. We are all crew.” - Marshall McLuhan

I'm a big fan of Earth.

My favourite planet by far.

 

[Zak]

There is no Planet B.

“There are no passengers on spaceship earth. We are all crew.” - Marshall McLuhan

I do not agree. I think the vast majority are passengers, along for the ride, just trying to get by day by day, for whom the planets health is not a thought. And the crew has greedy, weak, and ineffective leadership.

 

[Dustin Chromers]

There is no Planet B.

Well there probably will be but I can't see it being any cooler.

 

[swimmy]

I saw where an activist set himself on fire to protest climate change and end up dying.

Oof.

Oof.

Are you sure it wasn't spontaneous combustion?

Ahhh Earth Day. When president #46 uses an inefficient 747 to fly all the way across the country to make speeches and throw out executive orders from on high that he could have done from home all the while snarling traffic for 8+ hours on one of the most congested highways in America with a motorcade of gas guzzling SUV's and Limos .

Were you as outraged when #45 did that?
