Paradise Unpaved

FireHawk Hulin 'Stumbled" me a link to this great visual story by illustrator/author Franke James. Franke's story of battling the powers that be to create a little beauty and health in her front yard is the perfect antidote to Joni Mitchell's famous lament "Pave paradise, put up a parking lot."

Click the image to "read" the rest of the story (and while you're there, check out the others she's created on the subject of global climate change and what we can each do about it).

Hi Amy,

Thanks very much for featuring my essay Paradise Unpaved -- and picking up on the Joni Mitchell song! I appreciate you sharing it with your Global Climate Change readers.

I love Franke James. Her work and who she is. I follow her on twitter (frankejames)
