Tide Pool Views Filmloop

This past week I had the opportunity to spend some time on the Northern California coast between Santa Cruz and Half Moon Bay.  I was surprised to find so many bird feathers floating in the tide pools.  This became a key theme for my latest Filmloop.   I hope you enjoy the colors and textures of the sea life, rocks and water at the tide pools.  I sure did!

Biodiversity Benefits People

I just watched a lovely presentation from UNEP called Biodiversity Benefits People.  The presentation talks about the importance of biodiversity, celebrating its relationship with people and society's immense responsibility to protect the world for future generations.  It provides an overview of why we need to take action to protect plants, the seas, drylands, forests, islands, freshwater, mountain habitats, agricultural biodiversity, address global consumption patterns and live more sustainably.  It goes so well with the theme of this site.  I hope you will watch it.  It takes about 5 minutes.
