On St Valentines Day cosy up to your significant other(s), share and rejoice in love’s warm glow. Even get hot and sticky!
We have some design collections that encourage you to appreciate and love the world you’re on and its bountiful botany. The respective design backstories include coverage as to how we can use STEAM to mitigate the damage humans have done to Earth’s ecosystems so we can continue to live and love here on our beautiful little blue dot (giving Mr Musk, Bezos and NASA et al more time to grow a sustainable off world capability).
And, after re-listening to Shona Laing's old “Soviet Snow” and “Glad I’m Not A Kennedy” songs (including respectively the lyrics “…We're teasing at war like children, Love is the one solution …” and, in the background, President Kennedy saying any post nuclear war fruits of victory would be like ashes in our mouths) we hope President’s Putin & Biden step back from the shadows of war and remember Carl Sagan’s quote:
“(Earth is a little blue dot in the cosmos) Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that in glory and in triumph they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot.”
So, let’s also ensure we continue to value, nurture and care for our loved ones, the Earth - our beautiful little blue dot – not just today but tomorrow and beyond. And at least tolerate everyone else!
Some quotes from Chief Seattle:
“We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors; we borrow it from our children”
“… we all belong to Mother Earth. Our planet is in great trouble and if we keep carrying old grudges and do not work together, we will all die.”
