If you’ve never witnessed a total solar eclipse, Mike Kentrianakis does a great job of explaining it in this video: “You’ll think twice about the world you live in.” washingtonpost.com/national/healt… Since I missed seeing totality in Argentina today, I'm going to post some links on this thread of videos from previous total solar eclipses

Thread 🧵

The first case of COVID-19 can be traced to November 17 — I see people calling today COVID-19’s birthday. More accurately stated, this is COVID-19’s spillover birthday, the day the virus made the jump to humans. 1/ The CDC estimates that ¾ of new human diseases originate in animals.

1/ I have lived on this blue orb for 16,719 days now. I am thankful for every moment I have had and every moment I still have left on this beautiful pale blue dot we call home, floating in space in the outskirts of the Milky Way galaxy. 💫 2/ I am going to use my remaining days spending more time listening to the conversations of trees, swimming in the sea among the last of our coral reefs, the tiny nudibranchs with every color you could ever imagine, other worlds among us, entire rainforests under the sea.

My race program allowed me to protect over 1500 acres of rainforest, give away 30,000 vegan cheeseburgers, 1000 DVD copies of The Cove at Daytona, hundreds of Blackfish DVDs at Talladega, show my electric car and...

1/ Humans are the most dangerous animal on Earth. We represent just 0.01% of all living things and yet in our short time here we have already had a catastrophic effect on the natural world: we have destroyed 83% of all wild mammals and 50% of all plants. 2/ Of all mammals on Earth, 60% are now livestock, 36% are humans, and just 4% are wild animals. Farmed poultry makes up 70% of all birds on the planet, with just 30% being wild. How sad is it that most of the birds on Earth are not able to fly. That’s what wings are for.
