Rejouvination.

I recently discovered through GreenPeace a remarkable artist by the name of Jason deCaires Taylor. I'm literally in awe of this man's work. He has created maginificant statues representing humanity; the good, the bad, and the ugly. Not only has he managed to be creative, innovative, and moving with his artwork... its under water!   His intention is to draw people away from fragile natural coral reefs and instead be drawn to his artwork which is meant to act as artificial reefs in hopes to attract corals to support more marine life and provide space for natural rejouvination. 









I love this world.  I love our planet, I love the intelligence of the human species and the beautiful things we are capable of.  I love the cultures we create, the words we string together, the images we invent.  I love the human mind.  It is painful to see the horrendous things that small minded people can create, though.  &&Unfortunately the greedy, the stingy, and the selfish are the ones with the talent for manipulating society into following in their path of destructin.  When I see a positive movement as phenomenal as this one I get more hope for the human race.  I get excited about doing something as monumental one day.  Lets stop doubting ourselves and just fix this planet, yeah?
