We all want to be well rounded, right? We want to protect the environment, so that we can enjoy the environment. Revel in her beauty. Labor in her soil. Refresh ourselves in her waters. And share it with our children. I am optimistic that a clean earth shall be our legacy. Except for the blip that is Donald Trump, we are finally getting all of the countries on the planet to come together to ensure that we are taking care of our Mother Earth. She has given us everything and asks nothing in return.

Getting outside and enjoying nature helps us understand what is at stake. I have an inherent need to commune with nature. I may have hugged a tree or two in my life. If you aren’t sure how to get more vitamin-N in your life, follow me and I’ll give you plenty of ideas for doing more outside. Some just for the fun of it, but also ways to be stewards of the environment. There are many organizations that need your help.

I get the itch. Do you? Seeing the world through Google Earth is not enough for me. I want to dig my toes into the sand. I want to feel my muscles aching to get up that mountain. I want to travel the world! But I also have guilt about the impact of jet fuel used to get me there. I am going to delve into how to explore responsibly.
