A Devon Walk
Celebrating the beautiful Planet Earth and a stream running through a field
Evening peace
Today is Blog Action Day and the theme is water. It seemed a worthwhile cause so Learning from Dogs has joined the many thousands of Bloggers ‘speaking’ to millions of combined readers.
I have no idea what aspects of water will be covered by all those many authors but Blog Action Day sets the theme thus:
Why Water?
Right now, almost a billion people on the planet don’t have access to clean, safe drinking water. That’s one in eight of us who are subject to preventable disease and even death because of something that many of us take for granted.
Access to clean water is not just a human rights issue. It’s an environmental issue. An animal welfare issue. A sustainability issue. Water is a global issue, and it affects all of us.
I’m staying over in SW England at present with friends who live in a beautiful part of the County of Devon and that means plenty of lovely walks. Just a few days ago, the setting sun was glorious across the green rolling hills that are so typical of South Devon.
But this day is about water. That bountiful gift from a wonderful planet perfectly positioned from our Sun.
The planet's gift to all
Water. The essence of life.
