In the USA Memorial Day is a holiday to honor and remember the dead from all WARs. As a witness to war on two continents, I remind you of its extremely large carbon footprint, long lasting environmental damage and waste of resources. Working towards peace is an environmental statement.
Individual actions are multiplied
by the number of individuals
The fist becomes war
the handshake much more.
The dreams of the world
are cast in wax
light the wick
and don’t look back.
All you have to lose is time
And all the time you lose is mine.
-Billy Curmano, “Granite Marker”, “Performance for the Dead”, September, 1983
