The Toosdai critters are joining the Daily Kos Climate Science Blogathon for one simple reason: they believe in science. In fact, they share many bonds with pioneering scientists. Let’s explore.
New Zealand ornithologist Don Merton dedicated his life to saving rare birds, the kakapo he’s holding among them.
Pai and Piri also work to preserve the kakapo, kiwi and other birds by sniffing out their predators.
Is it any wonder they’ve become so fond of these distinctive birds?
Annie Easley, in her 34 years at NASA, worked to pioneer computer programs for alternative energy solutions, including wind and solar power and automotive batteries.
The critters likewise maximize the potentials of computer technology.
James Hansen is a pioneering figure in the study of climate change and also likes to toss balls in the air.
The critters share his tendencies.
Richard Feynman spoke out against pseudoscience, like we see today with climate change denial, all while not caring what anyone thought.
The critters feel likewise.
So critters, wherever they are, will be marching next Saturday.
And, like their scientist friends, they will be sticking their tongues out at climate change deniers.
Please join us in combating climate change this Saturday and beyond.
