Environmental News
David Suzuki: Science Matters
Young people often ask me what they have to do to be environmentalists. They want to make a difference. My answer is, “Follow your heart. Do what you love most and pursue it with passion.”
You see, environmentalism isn’t a profession or discipline; it’s a way of seeing our place in the world. It’s recognizing that we live on a planet where everything, including us, is exquisitely interconnected with and interdependent on everything else.
Life-giving water moves from ocean to air to land, across the globe, linking all life through the hydrologic cycle. Every breath we take contains oxygen from every plant on land and in the sea, as well as whatever issues from every factory chimney and vehicle on Earth. The web of all living things constantly partakes of and cleanses, replenishes, and restores air, water, soil, and energy. In this way of seeing the world, we are not only recipients of nature’s most vital gifts – we are participants in her cycles.
Whatever we toss without a thought or deliberately dump into our surroundings doesn’t simply vanish or dilute away. Our use of air, water, and soil as garbage dumps means that those emissions and pollutants move through the biosphere, ecosystems, habitats, and eventually our own bodies and cells.

Chelsea Update:
We post the updates from Team Chelsea on our website, so please check back often to view the latest posts. June 20th post has a link to a Google map showing the locations and dates of sightings of Chelsea. Team Chelsea is dedicated to bringing Chelsea back home, and in so doing has rescued numerous lost dogs and cats, reuniting them with their distraught owners. ☺ Team Chelsea asks that if you see Chelsea that you PLEASE phone in right away as time is of the essence in tracking Chelsea’s movements and maybe your phone call will be the one that helps Chelsea to move back home. ☺
What to do if you see Chelsea:
• Immediately call 905-706-2635 or 905-666-4676
• Remain calm – projecting a calm energy is very important
• DO NOT face her square on – instead have your body on an angle so you are not in a threatening position
• You can try to lure her with treats, speak quietly, slowly and calmly in order to create curiosity in her rather than excitement
• Allow her to come to you – if she moves away then keep your distance but try and keep her in your sights.
• Please do NOT chase or tackle Chelsea, we do not want her to be subjected to any further trauma and we do not want any harm to come to her or you.
