Do we need more...

All the postings about how nature is changing (Thailand showing record numbers of turtle hatches, giraffes wandering the streets of Nelspruit, etc) got me thinking...

Do we need to have a global lockdown more regularly, perhaps every ten years or so? No diseases, just a lockdown, for nature to correct the world a bit...

This is true, but can we be locked down for 10 years? I just hope we have learned something, and will try to keep doing that which we know now works to help nature recover..... welcome back - I can't seem to log into my blog, I can see it, but can't remember how to access it to post.... maybe I should do a new one, with my 250+ poems....

Very true mate but looking at it from a different perspective, perhaps if this virus thins out a few of the muppets nature will get an even better chance to recover. (Wishful thinking) Unfortunatly I foresee a sudden descent on coast etc by all sorts and it will all go to Kak again

@Max...you need to sign into Blogger with the correct email address.

I didn't mean that we need a 10yr long lockdown, rather that we perhaps need one every ten years... :-)

@Peter...I hear you. We actually need something like another world war, something that we can't just lock each other down for a few weeks to take care of. And yes, I fear the worst for the coast when this lockdown is lifted...it is going to take a hammering from all the fuckwits...
