Another environmental piece where global warming is concerned. This piece contains dried river beds, cactus, habaneros and dried cracked leather. The riverbed is suffering, while the cactus and habanero are thriving. Don’t keep your eye on the cactus. Humans need the water that is disappearing from the riverbeds. While dried riverbeds are nice for photos and parties, if we don’t turn this around, the only parties we’ll be having are the farewell parties at funerals. And of course, my always trusted raven is watching it all go down and saying “I told you so”.
