shapeshifting to stay alive

Climate change is not only a human problem; animals are having to adapt to it as well. Some warm-blooded animals are shapeshifting and getting larger beaks, legs, and ears to better regulate their body temperatures as the planet gets hotter. Researcher Sara Ryding said, "The climate change that we have created is heaping a whole lot of pressure on birds and animals, and while some species will adapt, others will not."
“The footprint of self-centered humanity is seen everywhere on the earth, and the life it is creating is not sustainable. We have reached a choice point. We are slowly awakening, realizing that we are one living body responsible for our own future. Our crisis is our birth!” – Barbara Marx Hubbard
Affirmative prayer: Infinite Presence, I hold sacred the earth-home in which I live, move, and have my being. I pray that the citizens and leaders of our precious planet are awakening to higher wisdom, a clearer vision, and to a steadfast courage that transforms our thinking and our planet to a home that is sustainable and verdant. We are holy stewards. Thank you, God, forever. Amen.
