Humour can help climate change

So, have  you noticed gas prices have gone down during these days of dealing with COVID-19?  Great timing, when the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) protocol is to just stay  home, and not go anywhere  ?#$!? (Great for climate change, though!)

Speaking about climate change can get depressing.  Today, Friday April 3,  is International Humour Month.  Well, how can humour help with climate change?

There may be a lot of anxiety, fear and worry about the issues around climate change, and how to save the planet.  Shannon Subers, says when people get overwhelmed they tend to shut down, fear, and panic sets in.  A little humour about climate change helps here and there!    Today is Friday April 3, and we are on the third day of Earth Month. This year’s Earth Day 2020 theme is Climate Action.

This website is about the Richard St. Barbe Baker Afforestation Area - an urban regional park of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. The hosts are the stewards of the afforestation area. The afforestation area received its name in honour of the great humanitarian, Richard St. Barbe Baker. Richard St. Barbe Baker (9 October 1889 – 9 June 1982) was an English forester, environmental activist and author, who contributed greatly to worldwide reforestation efforts. As a leader, he founded an organization, Men of the Trees, still active today, whose many chapters carry out reforestation internationally. {Wikipedia} Email is StBarbeBaker AT yahoo.com to reach the Stewards of the Richard St. Barbe Baker Afforestation Area
