May Gaia Science Live in the Lynn Margulis Memorial Fund

Dear Earthlings:

a great scientist of Gaia has passed, leaving a wonderful legacy that needs tending.  Lynn Margulis was the most biocentric of the Gaia scientists, and a major inspiration for yours truly's Gaia and the New Politics of Love.  Her books of science read like novels because she was in love with the Earth, enchanted with its animated creatures large and small, passionate about their symbiosis. For the full collection, check her Author's Page.
For the Holiday Season, consider making a donation to the Lynn Margulis Memorial Fund.  It will be a good contribution to the future of life on our hostess/lover/mother planet Earth.  

This is the announcement from James MacAllister, a friend of science who is taking taking the legacy on.  


Dear all,

It is with great sadness to pass along the news that a great American scientist has died. Lynn Margulis died on at 5:15 PM (17:15 EST) on November, 22, 2011; she was 73 years old. She suffered a massive hemorrhagic stroke last Thursday. She will be dearly missed by her devoted family, students, her many friends and colleagues around the world.
In lieu of flowers, contributions should be made to the Lynn Margulis Memorial Fund*. This fund will be used to support students that will continue her scientific research.

*Checks may be sent directly to "Lynn Margulis Memorial Fund" at Northampton Cooperative Bank, PO Box 550, Amherst, MA 01004

Dear Earthlings:

The ecology of life is always love.  And love comes in many many different forms, including symbiosis.  Did you know that in Gaia science, symbiosis is recognized as what makes evolution possible?  Symbiosis, a form of collaboration among species and individuals thereof, is what makes a species like our come along.  Shouldn't we be grateful?  Read Lynn Margulis for more.  Donate to her fund.  And stay tuned for more posts about her on this blog.

Education is the heart of democracy.  And that includes education to love.

Did you enjoy the post?  Let us know!  Yours truly appreciates your attention.  The comments box is open.
