I’ll look for it this weekend! I can rewrite this for Cambria, which built a water recycling - brackish water plant in Environmentally Sensitive Habitat Area. The protagonist can be a steelhead, with supporting roles for red-legged frogs, tidewater gobies, and various birds. Mabel can fight operating it, as I and others have for the past 12 years. Actual ponds from SLO County!

Ooh love this! And yes didn't realize until I got on the phone with Emily that there was a SLO connection!

We just finished watching the mini series “ Our Planet” narrated by Morgan Freeman. Excellent and makes the message very clear. Take the time to stream it on Netflix.

Makes you wonder what was cut! Agree that the heavy-handed approach isn't always the best, especially when it comes to family-friendly entertainment. That's why we have writers like you to help us connect the dots between complex themes.

Thank you! I also wonder what was cut. Maybe someday we'll find out, would be fascinating to learn. But hard to imagine it being much better...
