   1. And doing it faster than ever before.

      1. Sadly true

2. Microplastic everywhere, land, sea, air, oceans filling with plastic. Climate change: tropical diseases creeping north, oceans rising, glaciers melting, extinctions in progress (bees, coral reefs, e.g.), landfills nearing full. Far fewer cigarette butts on floors and streets, less trash. Wind power and solar power expanding despite GOP agenda. EPA being systematically strangled.

   1. You covered all the bases very succinctly. Humans are making a grand mess of things.

      1. Indeed. World wide.

3. Humans are the most inhumane creatures on this planet!

   1. We certainly can be. I think I’ve read that only humans indulge in deliberate cruelty.

      1. That isn’t hard to believe Susan. :”(

      2. Hmmm, chickens, horses, rats, – and other animals do bully and single out one to pick on and frequently injure the victim- for no reason. We shall not mention the games cats play with prey (as one is glaring at me…probably confirming how idiotic humans can be)

      3. I will bow to your far superior knowledge on matters of such great moment Phil.
         How can I possibly argue with one so governed by those dastardly critters who at this very moment are glaring at your trembling body

      4. My uncle had a gorgeous paint cutting horse once who would get bored in the pasture and would pick out one cow to just chase and torment with bites. As lovely as he was, he was traded off as he was running the money off the cattle. HAHA.
         Hope you are rested up from your birthday celebrations!

      5. I’d love to have watched that horse in action, probably wouldn’t have stopped laughing.
         My birthday passed without notice Phil, which pretty much suits me these days, I shall be going for a few drinks with my chum this coming Sunday, His birthday is a couple of days before mine, but he’s been tied up with some medical procedures at the RPA for the last couple of weeks and couldn’t make it.
         Medical procedure is a euphemism for checking him out for cancer I think.

      6. At this point, agreed upon gatherings are more important than birthdays. The smiles there more warming than candles on cakes.

      7. How odd. I’ve never heard of a horse chasing a cow just for grins (or whinnies).

      8. Nor I; but phil had more experience in animal crackers and that RC Cat, has her well trained and makes sure that she knows what’s going on,

      9. Now at 8 am Tuesday time for me to get off this computer and hit the shower. 😛
