Wilderness in the middle of the city 🌊😍🇨🇦 Spending time in Nature helps to regulate your stress hormones. Especially near water, negative ions are highly concentrated in the atmosphere.

The US spends almost twice as much per capita on health care as any other nation. Yet 85 million Americans are uninsured or under-insured and 68,000 die each year because they can’t afford a doctor. Health care must be a human right, not a privilege. We need Medicare for All.

Rear view of a fox visiting my New Hampshire (USA) yard yesterday. Kept pouncing on the deep native ground cover and native goldenrod stalks hoping for a rabbit. Good effort. #fox #nature #Canadafan #nature
