Boo, I said. He reacted as all mutts react when I confront them. He leapt from his chair and dove for the nearest exit, shaking in terror. In my dreams. He glanced at me and started looking for Clay.

Carbon dioxide pollution is transforming the chemistry of the ocean, rapidly making the water more acidic.

So we confront an urgent choice: to move beyond fossil fuels or to risk turning the ocean into a sea of weeds.
Sigourney Weaver
Image
In honor of Oprah Winfrey: Even greater than the ability to inspire others with hope is the power to motivate them to give as much to the lives of others as they would give to their own and to empower them to confront the worst in themselves in order to discover and claim the best in themselves.
