Global warming signs, including an invasive species known as purple loosestrife, have unsettled the historical nature writer’s homeland. It’s sad to think of it, considering that this author inspired so many humans in wanting to preserve and conserve. Now, a century and a half after his famous journal, are the results of people not abiding. Makes me think of The Dude not abiding, and that’s just sacrilegious.
