Hi and thanks for visiting :) It is a sad video indeed ... And yet it also shows the incredible capacity nature has to adapt to a changing environment. The downside of course is that everything has its breaking point and we've pushed things so far already we're fast approaching a point of no return. It is really time to react ...

Bienvenue!
I must admit that until today I had always resisted the idea of having a blog, mostly because I tended to see blogs as virtual 'diaries', which was something I could not picture myself having. However, I gradually realised that I did enjoy reading both friends' and strangers' blogs, whether it was to check out what my kiwi friends down under were up to or learn more about a specific topic, skim through photos or discover new comic strips by burgeoning artists. I also realised that I had started compiling press reviews and sending out articles to friends who shared my interests and concerns, spontaneously and at times invasively, I suppose. So it eventually dawned on me that rather than go on littering my already-cluttered flat with newspaper clippings and your inboxes with spam, I might as well gather all the news items, articles and photos that capture my attention into one virtual bundle and leave it up to you to read me or ignore me as you please. It's just ... tidier! I do not quite know what form this blog is going to take, or whether it will take any form at all for that matter, but I guess that like most things in life, it will depend on curiosity. Mine and yours.

It would be funny if it weren't sad.

It made me cry!
Thank you, Kiwi! I will definitively repost it in my blog.
