Comics for Contemplation: Pollinator Appreciation!

Art by Cloe Moreno, writing by Molly Josephs

In a world abuzz with war, geopolitical turmoil, and a 24-hour news cycle, our hearts and attentions often feel strained. This can make it harder to attend to the the good stuff, including the smaller creatures that keep us and many other species alive.

Even though we are late (because actually last week was pollinator appreciation week), we dedicate this Substack post to the flying and crawling earthlings among us— the birds, insects, and mammals— that make the food we eat possible through pollination. As we messy humans figure out how to be more harmonious, let’s look to those living in greater balance with other flora and fauna.

Gratitude for the pollinators! Thank you for the work you do, from which we have much to learn.
