Playing God is an audio-slide show where you'll listen to bee keeper and Queen Bee breeder Alejandro Patricio García explains the importance of insects due to their pollination powers.

He also touches on the catastrophic damage that agrochemical based monoculture has leashed on our world.

He sees big agro as putting us at huge risk by "playing God" with genetically modified organisms (GMO) and spraying herbicides and insecticides that destroy the soil. He warns this is what's triggering significant changes in our weather, especially flooding. This bee keeper advises us that the only solution is to return to nature. To respect life and our environment.

Crucified Nature

Here I´m sharing with you "Crucified Nature," my latest audio-slide show, the first made with my iPhone, which shows the unnecessary and exaggerated pruning of trees and deforestation in my native Spain.

Spain has suffered intense deforestation the past few decades. The elimination of forests is provoking radical temperature changes, droughts, heavy rains, huge fires and even tornadoes.

Even though severe weather changes should be reason enough to alter our how we farm and stop deforesting, killing trees has increased worldwide. In southern Spain many city and town governments actually promote the seemingly illogical topping off of trees that line the city's streets.

In this report you will hear the words of Miguel Angel Rosales, a forest engineer who specializes in trees, and Alejandro García, a beekeeper and queen breeder.

Nick Cobbing - Surface Tension

I want to share a gallery, Surface Tension, by British photographer Nick Cobbing. The gallery shows an aerial study of the unique ice formations, within the glaciers and ice-cap of Greenland. Cobbing 'blends elements of landscape photography and photojournalism' and focus in environmental issues.
I think his pictures are important not only because their beauty but because actually its necesary a change on mentality to stop the global warming. To see the gallery click in the picture.
