Friday Poem

Environmental & Science Education, Poetry, Art & Environment

Ed Hessler

Good morning from the Center for Global Environmental Education, Hamline University, Saint Paul, MN on October 15, 2021. It is the 288th day-78.90% - of 2021 which started 414,720 minutes ago.  Sunrise is at 7:27am and sunset is at 6:28pm giving us 11h 01m 36s of sunlight.

It is National Red Wine day and Foodimentary has facts and figures as well food history related events. I didn't know that one bottle of wine contains the juice of about 3 pounds  (~1.36 kg) of grapes.

Quote: You can't change the laws of physics, but an engineering problem--that can be solved.--Linda Dunn (in "Green Dream" by Rivka Galchen, The New Yorker October 8, 2021)

Today's poem is by Linda Pastan.
