Black Lives Matter + Nature Connection
We are in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement. To respond to the call for predominantly non-black led organizations to take a break from promoting our own content, we have decided to amplify Black voices and share resources from organizations led by Black naturalists.
Today we’re featuring Tawny Newsome, a musician, comedian and actress on Netflix’s new show, Space Force. Tawny is working to help people feel more comfortable in nature and has regularly been sharing tips and tricks on her IGTV. Check them out to find some helpful inspiration for your next adventure!
Today’s nature connection idea: “Catch a Jewel”
Find something spectacular in nature that you can focus your attention on (everything in nature is spectacular so it can be anything). If you have binoculars, this can be a great way to see more details of your scene. If you don’t, you can still look closely. You may be surprised to see what you find!
