Knowledge
Ignorance may be bliss, but knowledge is a well of discovery that never runs dry. To care about nature or people, first we need to know about them. And the more we know, the more we are inspired. A single bacterium possesses about 10 million bits of genetic information; an insect one to 10 billion. By studying extremophile organisms, the health of soils, the acorn’s encoded secrets, the pollination of lavender, the dance of honeybees, the flight of flamingos, the intelligence of pigs and the respiration of forests, we cultivate awe and respect. We learn to value life more.
