Story of the day that stuck with me is this one about the Dalai Lama melting hardened reporters in Calgary.
This even after he'd taken an indirect swipe at the tar sands.
Nice antidote to the story out of Tokyo that the 2016 Olympics may be the last one in history given global warming. Seems like a bit of an overstatement since they pulled them off in ancient greece, although it could be true that the corporate jet set version of today may struggle in years to come.
It does remind us though that we are still sleepwalking into a situation that's untenable for our kids, even as we rush them to school each day to prepare them for the future.
This is why we launced our swing ridings work, centred on the parent-kid bond. We all collectively need to amp it up though, and continue to melt the hearts of hardened reporters who don't seem to think this global-warming-threatening-our-kids-future thing is really news...
