Hi Heli -
Earth Day is nearly here, and that makes me think of all of my eco sisters walking the path for Earth Healing. It's time to say Thank You for your contributions. When can we see some of your art for the bears at Ursa Freedom Project?

BTW, I love how the ecopaparazzi eyeball pokes out from the green leaf in your banner. It's funny looking, but is a good reminder for how we are all connected -- can't tell where the human eye ends and the leaf begins.

Hi Heli -
We haven't chatted in ages! It's nice to see your art activity over here at ecopaparazzi. Please come and join me at the bear liberation campaign Ursa Freedom Project. I"m not shuttling back and forth between ecopaparazzi and UFP. I'd love to see you and your art join forces with other to rescue some bears! So tell me, how have you been? I miss talking with you!

Hello Lightworker Heli!
Would you like for me to add you to the ecopaparazzi Book Writers and Bloggers site? Your artwork is so lovely and your poetry and photography as well. Your blog site loads very slowly though and takes a long time. I think it is because the resolution on the photos is so big. Do you have a software program you can use to reduce the resolution so your site loads faster? If not, I can recommend a free download that is very excellent and easy to use.

Hope your new year is good. I celebrated at the American Legion, danced all night, drank too many vodkas and took a cab home 3:30 in the morning. Not moving too fast today. Hugs from Rick
 
 
 

Eco photos show the beauty and destruction of Mother Earth. Pictures sound the alarm; wake us up; and motivate us toward activism.

ECO KUDOS

Kudos to artist and writer Rod MacIver for producing a gorgeous edition of one of the most inspirational books I've ever read and animated films I've ever seen -- The Man Who Planted Trees. Rod's journal includes the story by Jean Giono and interviews with the film animator Frederic Back. Buy it at Heron Dance.

Global greed is out. Local sharing is in. The Wall Street system failed us; this book is a great guide as we build the alternatives. Kudos to David Korten, one of our most brilliant economic thinkers.

Thanks to Denis Slieker and Jos van Assendelft for writing Our Balancing Act: the real value of ecosystems. The book emphasizes the need to put a monetary value on the services provided by forests in order to provide a business case against unsustainable conversion. Buy the book at www.theforestenterprise.com

The Indianapolis Prize is the largest individual monetary award for animal species conservation in the world and is given as an unrestricted gift to the chosen honoree by the Eli Lilly and Company Foundation. The award is an energetic and spectacular celebration of conservation victories and puts heroes, who live in danger of both wild beasts and poachers, on the pedestal that we usually reserve for sports and entertainment stars.
