There is something reassuring and calming about looking up at the night sky; a reminder of nature's constancy and magnitude. And at this time of the year, as our thoughts turn to Christmas festivities, there is a peace to be found in those beacons of starlight above - so steadfast and still as they watch over us.
In the wake of a year that has seen heightened public consciousness about what we are doing to our planet and the urgent need to protect our skies, our land and our seas, I am hopeful that as we approach this season of celebration we may all start to think about the act of giving and how we might give a little differently - more consciously, in order to lighten the load on the earth without taking the joy out of the celebrations.
