Of course we have to protect rainforest, but we also have to protect the native peoples who have lived there for generations and who have invaluable knowledge that we can't learn through books. I'll soon have another podcast which is a follow up conversation I had with an English Jesuit priest who lives with the Amerindians, you can hear his thoughts on his role as a Catholic priest in this fast changing world. His thoughts on faith and the future are insightful and timely.
A huge and big thank you to James Broscombe for really wonderful photos, the latest is the one above. His blogspot: - 2009 - A Picture a Day - well worth looking at.
Thanks very much also to ARC (Alliance of Religions and Conservation) who sent me to Brazil for the Jesuit conference.
Hi Mary,
ReplyDeleteI met Anil again about two weeks ago. He was at his first exhibition in Georgetown. Here's a link to him, standing in front of some of his work.

Thanks James - great photo as ever. When you see him next give him a hug from me. Hope you are both well. Stand by for interview with Paul Martin to be published - any good photos of him? Love to you both.
