“Individuals will decide for themselves.” -Dr. John Swartzberg, Clinical Professor Emeritus, UC Berkeley’s School of Public Health, speaking to The Chronicle on venturing into new times.
It will be up to us to decide what is safe. Let’s keep the good things: wash hands, speak softly, respect others, play and eat outdoors, coexist with nature, support local business and community, relish art and music, walk more, drive less, stay vigilant.
The ability to adapt requires awareness, willingness, and the realization that protecting nature is necessary for our existence.
