Pond in the Glades, 2012, Jo-Ann Sanborn
Acrylic on canvas, 5"x7"

A champion of Everglades protection and preservation passed away last week.  Wayne Nelson raised both his voice and his money to challenge the powers that cause and continue deterioration of only subtropical environment in our country. 

A friend of Marjorie Stoneman Douglas, like her his work will not be complete until we reverse and honor the natural systems of our world like the Everglades, that will allow us to enjoy clean water and healthy oceans into the future.  

Do you have a cause, something that you believe in and work for?  Mine is the Everglades.  If you would like to know just a little more about  why I think their preservation is important, you can order my book, Embracing the Everglades here.  A dollar from every book sold is donated to organizations that work to protect the landscape I've come to love.
