Water
I find I can truly ground myself amid trees, animals, and Oklahoma plains, curves, mountains, rivers, creeks, and lakes. Granted, the heat here is rather wet- a humidity that can zap one's energy before you even get to your car from your dwelling. The cicadas are no longer filling the air with screams after emerging from the ground and temperatures are no longer causing heat advisories through the state.

An evening on the Trail
I began to succumb to my drifting eyes. I focused them on the tree bark. Watching the line of small dots run up it. And then there was another lane, one headed down. Where could they be going?

Atmospheric Pollution
These are the occasions when the world, driven by globalization, is going through many changes and progressions. Quick industrialization is a necessary part of these changes. However, someplace down the line, such fast headways are additionally prompting incidental antagonistic effects. Cutting trees, air contamination, water contamination, and so on are a portion of the eventual outcomes that will, in general, obliterate the fragile equilibrium of nature. This will undoubtedly bring about genuine effects if the developing mechanical exercises continue disregarding the actions for caring the nature. A prompt setback of industrialization is the consumption of woods cover.

Ice Water
Water disobeys the Particle Theory of Matter; rather than contracting when cold, water expands. For complicated reasons, the molecules spread out instead of huddling together despite the fact they are indeed in a crystalline lattice and vibrating in a solid state. Yes, that means that frozen water is a mineral. Anyway, the PToM, as it pertains to water was one of my favourite topics to explain when I taught children because it sets the perfect example of how much life, like people, frequently refuses to follow the common rules of engagement.

As a full time plant coach, urban farmer, landscaper and “plantrepreneur” my mission is to give people the knowledge and confidence they need to create their own green spaces; all in the pursuit of environmental and social change.
