"A person will worship something, have no doubt about that. We may think our tribute is paid in secret in the dark recesses of our hearts, but it will out. That which dominates our imaginations and our thoughts will determine our lives, and our character. Therefore, it behooves us to be careful what we worship, for what we are worshipping we are becoming."
-----Ralph Waldo Emerson
Australia and other parts of the world, such as China and Brazil, are experiencing unprecedented drought. Places which have always had regular rainfall patterns in Australia are experiencing less & less rain. Less and less rain is falling in the catchment areas which normally bring water to the most densely populated regions of Australia. The great Darling River, the lifeblood of Outback New South Wales has ceased to flow. Climate change is bringing the harsh reality of diminished crops and livelihoods for people in drought-ravaged regions. It is hotter than it ever was, and getting hotter. This is the Current Reality.
You can make practical changes to your lifestyle which can help reduce greenhouse gases and conserve our water. And you can also use your Imagination!
