The Warriors Call

Although the weather was damp to start, there was a nice turn out of Earth loving types attending the warriors call gathering against fracking at the Knightwood Oak in the forest. There were faces I knew and new ones too. The police popped by, what they expected I'm not sure, but they soon left when it became apparent this was a spiritual gathering and nothing more.  The ritual began promptly at 12.00 in unison with others throughout the country and indeed around the world.  It went well, a positive gathering and an affirmation of our opposition to fracking and of our support for mother nature.  The natural world is coming under sustained attacks from industry and development, fracking, development plans for our national parks; we have to draw a line or risk losing our natural heritage, leaving a desolate legacy for future generations.

When all the trees have been cut down, when all the animals have been hunted, when all the waters are polluted, when all the air is unsafe to breathe, only then will you discover you cannot eat money.
