Managing for endangered species: it's a dance, not a war
This week I'm in California writing about its rare and endangered plants for the Center for Plant Conservation. We're only two days in, and the fire hose of information has really bruised my brain. Botany can really throw some punches. I do have one quote victoriously held above all the water.
My professor asked someone from the Sacramento Splash center why he doesn't rise up and more assertively oppose the groups such as solar industries threatening endangered species. "It's a dance," the man answered, "not a war."
Gorgeous. In that case:
Here's M. Ward's very smoldering, slow cover of "Let's Dance" by David Bowie. I hear he played this at the Newport Folk Festival, although it's unfortunately not archived at NPR like all kinds of other wonderful artists (Carolina Chocolate Drops, Justin Townes Earle, Delta Spirit, of course Mavis Staples and ohmygodthislineupisbeautifulmustgonextyear).
