Mother Pelican ~ August 2022

Another monthly treasury of highly pertinent articles, on which I invite comments on any that you recommend or challenge.As global and local dillemmas mount so must our learning from each other in the quest for the detaiis of a sustainable and evolving Common Good.
 The death of James Lovelock [of the GAIA theory] at the age of 103 last week reminds us of the vital need for science and faith to genuinely listen to and learn from each other in a new scale of humility and quest for a viable future.  If you haven’t seen a Lovelock obituary please let me know and I’ll send the Observer’s editor’s succinct article.
