Descrição: "Whose anguish is it?" was still resounding in me. Mine? Earth's? Do we both feel the anguish? Do we all feel the anguish on some level -- the mountains, the trees, those who lived there, me, us? Do I allow myself to feel it? The poet went on "The Earth is our mirror. All the loveliness and grandeur, colours, lushness, diversity and wildness are within us too. The Earth is our mirror and we are her reflections." I first learned of cosmologist, geologian and Passionist priest Thomas Berry in the 1980s in an ecological ethics course given by Steve Dunn CP, at St. Michael's College in Toronto. Berry's reflections on our particular historical moment, and the magnitude of what we are facing with the Earth's diminishment, reinforced the wake-up call I had been hearing for some time from persons like Rosalie Bertell and Helen Caldicott.
