Another Philosophical Excursion…

No apologies. Climate change is such a massive challenge now and we should all be squaring our shoulders and doing our best to face up to it – and do what we can.

As part of my efforts in that direction, I’m a member of a Facebook group called Horses For Future, which is a place for horse owners to get together and do what we can, though the lands out horses graze, to improve carbon sequestration, build healthy soils and improve biodiversity on every level, from microscopic to large mammal and back.

Some of the group live in Australia and have been under fire threat this year – in places where fire has not visited in living memory or more – and reading their posts in the group has brought their climate change emergency – the sudden, unprecedented fire hazard – right into my house, too. Facebook has its drawbacks, but it does bring us together across the world in an extraordinary way!

Without further discussion, then, here’s the first part of Heather Binns’ three blog posts on how she and her family, including horses, have faced the fires this week.

If you have horses, or have friends who have horses, then search FB for Horses For Future and sign up! We’re trying to make a difference.
