Such crumbs from the past are rare so this is something to celebrate! Collectively we don’t seem to learn for sure but let’s also celebrate those who’re trying to do all they can to care for what we DO have left (including you as far as I know.. what’re you doing these days anyway Graham?)
So true. Education is a huge thing to take forward. It’s a lovely message from Ellen there. If we can get children to respect the world more and hopefully keep more species from going the way of the Moa, maybe they have a chance…🙂. Part of me thinks that capitalist consumerism will have to be curtailed to have any hope…but that means a total rethink in human society and of material wealth…it’s hard to see.
I totally agree with you. Many young people have a different mindset which is a positive. Thing is, change needs to happen real fast and, short of revolution, power structures change at glacial speed. Problem.

Amazing they’ve been found…so sad it’s just another reminder of the ignorance of mankind in our approach to consuming.

PS. incredibly valuable for educating young people. Have a look at the comment from grandmother “Ellen” and her lovely grandson (about 5 or 6 I think) on my other moa post https://exploringcolour.wordpress.com/2019/05/10/moa-footprints-discovery/
