  6. It is one of the ironies of our time that, while concentrating on the defense of our country against enemies from without, we should be so heedless of those who would destroy it from within.
    -- Rachel Carson (1953)

  11. Attention learns to follow urgency — scanning, trying to stay ahead of the moment. Beneath the story of human failure in the climate crisis is another layer, maybe an opportunity: to go from attention narrowed until it loses contact with what's here, to pausing to see what's actually there. When urgency breaks, relationship shifts.

    "...[M]an is a part of nature, and his war against nature is inevitably a war against himself."

    CAPÍTULO 2
    LA OBLIGACIÓN DE RESISTIR

    "Ciertas rocas emitían radiaciones peligrosas; incluso dentro de la luz solar, de la que toda la vida obtiene su energía, había radiaciones de onda corta con la capacidad de lesionar. Con el tiempo (tiempo no en años, sino en milenios) la vida se ajusta, y se ha alcanzado un equilibrio. Porque el tiempo es el ingrediente esencial; pero en el mundo moderno no hay tiempo."

  26. u-lo as fadas?

    O mundo dun pequeno é fresco, novo, fermoso, está cheo
    de sorpresa e entusiasmo. É unha desgraza que, na maioría de
    nós, esa visión lúcida, ese instinto natural que temos polo que
    é fermoso e impresionante, se debilite ou mesmo se perda antes
    de chegarmos á idade adulta. Se tivese cuña coa fada que supostamente está encargada de abeizoar todas as crianzas, pediríalle
    que escollese de agasallo para cada unha delas un sentido do
    abraio tan indestrutible que lles durase toda a vida, como un
    antídoto infalible contra o aborrecemento e o desencanto que
    han vir cos anos, contra a preocupación estéril por cousas que
    son artificiais, contra a alienación das orixes da nosa fortaleza.

  31. Working on my next print for the #PrinterSolstice2526 prompt subtraction- a scientist who brought the world’s attention to what was missing where there had been indiscriminate pesticide use, and DDT in particular. Award-winning science writer and marine biologist Rachel Carson (1907-1964) wasn’t the first to try to sound the alarm about unintended consequences, harm to wildlife, 🧵
