Beyond the pandemic, failure politics, economic downturn, schools starting up virtually, devastating fires, and ongoing brutality against black and brown people -- now we have environmental devastation. I'm having an incredibly hard time seeing light at the end of this tunnel.
We cannot simply just ride the bikes to escape any longer; all of the best places are now under mandatory closure -- or have already burned over. The evacuation maps look like cue sheets for all my favorite places in the west. We must begin making amends now, before a whole world is lost to climate disaster. =- Joe Bunik Walnut Creek, CA On 9/9/20, Matthew Williams <matthewwilliamsdes...@gmail.com> wrote: > Thank you, Leah. > > Here's what things looked like in Berkeley, around 8:30 this morning: > > > > > > > > On Sep 9, 2020, at 11:34 AM, Bicycle Belle Ding Ding! > <jonasandle...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> Hello All, I’ve been seeing the photos that Rivendell has been posting of >> the land during the fires and the best word to describe it was >> Will’s...which was “hellscape.” >> >> And it’s not just CA on fire, but now several states in the West.
