For in the true nature of things, if we rightly consider, every green tree is far more glorious than if it were made of gold and silver. --Martin Luther
This Week in Nature
Found irrefutable evidence for a beaver living on Dove Lake in Bryn Mawr. Long thought to have been extirpated from Lower Merion, just outsde Philadelphia, this is unbelievable news. Can mountain lions be far behind!?
Beaver...
...have returned to Lower Merion!
Green Fact of the Week
Before the Industrial Revolution, carbon dioxide concentrations measured about 280 parts per million.
After a century of burning fossil fuels, that number is about 372 ppm--and rising.
Debate climate change all you want; this is a plain, simple, measurable fact.
Lectures, Performances, Workshops
As a freelance environmental educator, I offer numerous lectures, workshops and even performances-- I've been performing vaudevillian-style environmental theater since the 1980s, while presenting in-depth keynote addresses at environmental conferences since the 90s.
Welcome to Natural Selections, a corner of the digital world dedicated to stimulating discussion about the state of the natural world. The literary landscape we cover not only includes the impact of environmental threats on nature and humankind, but also revels in the nature of nature-- the ongoing mystery that is life on earth.
From garbage to global warming, endangered species to alternative energy, we'll cover it all.
I'm an environmental educator with 30 years experience teaching about the environment to people of all ages in parks, museums, nature centers, schools and more. Director of a community preservation group outside Philadelphia, I write for a variety of publications, make frequent public radio appearances, lecture and present workshops, and more.
