The plunder of our seas by industrial fishing is a monstrosity in which almost everyone unwittingly collaborates. For decades this truth has been deliberately hidden from us. Now at last the consensus is cracking. This week's column.

Every summer my entire area gets this, what my kids and I call, “summer snow.” All the cottonwood trees release their seeds and fill the sky like this. It “snowed” on me while I gardened yesterday and it made me smile when I really needed it. So I thought I’d share the magic 🤍
