We ordered 2 custom prints for an accent wall in our master bedroom. Her consultative approach in selecting a curated portfolio with our color palette was fun, collaborative and very thoughtful. She is quick to respond and has a very good eye, while still allowing the customer to choose what works best. I would highly recommend and will certainly buy in the future. She's just a lovely professional to work with! Thank you, Anne!

Is it a good time to invest in gold or is it a good time to exit?
In the Indian context, gold prices have been close to Rs 30,000 per 10 grams since the beginning of the month of September. So, the question now is that is it a good time to invest in gold or is it a good time to exit?
To answer this question, we would need to understand some of the important factors that drive gold prices. Domestic gold prices mainly track international gold prices.
International gold prices are denominated in US dollar and hence share an inverse relation with US dollar i.e. its prices move up when the dollar weakens and vice-versa.
Historically, gold prices have also shared an inverse relation with US Federal Reserve rate. As interest rates increase, income (interest) generating assets like US Treasuries, become more attractive as compared to gold, which does not generate any income.
Another important factor that impacts the price of gold is its safe-haven appeal, as it has traditionally been viewed as a store of value.
Whenever markets go into a risk-off mode, demand for gold goes up, as its safe-haven appeal increases, while its demand goes down when markets go into a risk-on mode (indicated by volatility in financial markets).
Gold is also considered as a hedge against inflation, and in the Indian context, a hedge against depreciation of Rupee as well.
Gold prices have risen recently amidst escalating geopolitical tensions, ratcheted up due to hostile statements by North Korea, its testing of Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles (ICBM) which can reach the USA and the latest trigger being the nuclear test conducted by it.
US President Donald Trump as well has taken an aggressive posture. Moreover, US dollar has been weakening against a basket of major currencies (Dollar Index) since the beginning of 2017; it has weakened by 9.5%, as of 13th Sept'17.
Doubts over Trump administration's ability to push through the economic reforms, that he had promised during his election campaign, has put pressure on the dollar.
Reports of somewhat subdued economic data in the US as well has led to a weakening of the dollar. Also, US Federal Reserve officials are increasingly sounding dovish in their view about the interest rate hike.
Where will gold prices go from here, in some measure depends on how the above-mentioned factors pan out in the future.
Additionally, to sight a few, it also depends on how the global economy grows, if and when does European Central Bank and Bank of Japan start easing their asset purchase programs, etc.
Obviously, there are no certain answers to these questions, and hence, like equities, timing investments in gold is very difficult. Moreover, historical performance of gold has been negatively correlated to that of equities.
Investment & trading in securities market is always subjected to market risks, past performance is not a guarantee of future performance.

The State of Frenchmen Street
Organizing the discussion surrounding musician pay
Words by George Wilde. Photographs by Katie Sikora.
After saxophonist and band leader Khris Royal reignited the discussion of a cover charge on New Orleans' Frenchmen Street via a Facebook status update, there has been heated discussion in the musician community about low pay and unfavorable work conditions on the live music strip. Many voices have entered the fray. This piece serves to consolidate some of the discussion into a manageable form and to direct further discussion toward action. Much of this information will seem like old news to musicians but the reality of musician life on Frenchmen Street is not widely known or acknowledged by the public, tourists, policy-makers, and leaders in New Orleans.
Music is a way of life in New Orleans. It structures community events, provides thousands of jobs, and supports a thriving hospitality industry. It is embedded in the culture here. Musicians of days past are venerated as legends, their work canonized and their spirits honored and revered. Yet while these stories often ignore players' painful histories — struggles with brutal racism, lack of business training, mental illness, violence, gender-based discrimination — the cultural story told in pamphlets, guided tours, bike taxis, and even casual conversation with locals ignores the present-day local musician's reality: a livelihood threatened by stagnant pay and rising costs, endangering the next chapter of New Orleans musical heritage.
Frenchmen Street
Tourism is the biggest engine of economic activity in the city. In 2015 9.8 million visitors spent $7.1 billion, exceeding pre-Katrina spending. The Louisiana Department of Recreation, Culture, and Tourism expects these numbers to climb in the coming years. The iconography in local marketing materials sells live music as one of, if not the main attraction.
Frenchmen Street is known as a local live music destination, both by word of mouth and in guidebooks. Tourist traffic on Frenchmen has increased drastically over the last 5–7 years, drawn by the contrast with Bourbon Street: where Bourbon offers unabashed hedonism, Frenchmen lays claim to cultural significance linked (perhaps tenuously) to thriving musical creativity. While you can still get drunk and party on Frenchmen, musical offerings are more varied, original music is available, and the patrons need not navigate aggressive barkers, dancers in windows and doorways, or plastic beads raining from above.
Musicians are responsible for the crowds and the drink sales on Frenchmen Street. In an environment where each club has live music from 4 PM until closing time (which may be 4 AM), bands encourage the traffic. The musicians who keep the city's culture and tourism operating year-round deserve to be paid fairly. Yet the standard pay for bands at Frenchmen Street venues with no cover is 20% of the bar plus tips during a three- to four-hour time slot. This amounts to a starvation wage, as bars pay out as little as $200 total for four- to eight-piece bands. It is common for musicians to walk away from a three-hour, no-cover gig with less than $50, including tips. Musicians must be compensated not only for the time they are performing but also for the countless hours of training and preparation that are required to play well. Music is skilled labor, and demands a high wage. With rising housing and living costs, musicians are left struggling to make a living while spending has rapidly increased at Frenchmen Street venues over the last decade.
Pay guarantees are rarely offered at these no-cover venues: only on certain high-profile nights or special gigs. Through the lobbying efforts of musician advocates working for Frenchmen venues, select bands do occasionally receive reasonable guarantees from no-cover venues. This is commendable. Those individuals' efforts comprise tireless advocacy for musicians within the existing structure. However, the current system is inarguably unfair.
Art and Craft
To understand the economy of Frenchmen Street music (and the musical profession generally) one must acknowledge that the practice of music is both an art and a craft. It can be an original act that sells millions of records or commands huge live audiences nationwide. It can be entertainment for tourists or a nightly gig playing traditional repertoire or backing up a singer. Or playing the same parts night after night in a pit orchestra. Or a hired hand in a recording session. All of these applications require extensive skill-building, maintenance, and taste. They require years of training, practice, and energy. And they are all very different jobs.
A "show" is an event where a band performs original music or creative arrangements of existing music for a paying audience. The focus of the event is the music itself. And while the bar is the main vehicle for the venue to make a profit, drinks are merely a feature of the event, not the focus. Think Tipitina's, Maple Leaf Bar, One Eyed Jacks. Some Frenchmen clubs, like d.b.a., Blue Nile, Snug Harbor, do present such shows.
A "gig" is an agreement between a venue and a band to provide entertainment for a period of time. On Frenchmen Street the standard is three to four hours. In this environment, the music is meant to draw people into the bar to buy drinks. The audience is mainly invested in the drinks and the event is not organized around attentively digesting the music. From the perspective of the club and the audience, drink sales and consumption are the primary goals. Clubs that offer regular gigs include The Maison, 30/90, Vaso, Cafe Negril, Marigny Brasserie and The Spotted Cat.
The three- to four-hour Frenchmen Street gig is craftsmanship. It takes skill, training, and experience to be able to perform entertaining, engaging music for several hours. There are many other craft gigs in the city: the Market Café, Crazy Lobster, Steamboat Natchez. All of these walk the line between art and craft. It is widely understood that the Frenchmen Street gig can constitute artistry and many argue that if the street is to maintain its brand as a destination for live local music, artistry and creativity must be preserved. Some fear that we are watching its transition from art to shoddy craft.
Solutions For Better Working Conditions
The simplest argument for increased pay is the "bootstrapping" thesis. The argument states if you value your craft and respect yourself as a musician and an artist, you should not be playing gigs that do not pay well. You should not accept the conditions offered by these bars, and refuse to play there.
Proponents say seek your pay elsewhere and find another way to make a living. It's up to us, the people, to decide what we are worth and demand it. Every time a band agrees to play for less than a fair wage, the whole system suffers since clubs are then empowered to make that wage the standard. We can only demand fair pay if no one agrees to play below a fair rate.
This argument typically returns to the idea of a strike. This is not unique to the current discussion; it has been deliberated in the community for years. Since music brings the audience (in other words, the people buying drinks), if musicians were to successfully organize a work stoppage, clubs would feel a revenue loss very quickly and capitulate to demands for reasonable pay guarantees. This is a complicated task that requires a lot of organizational capacity that is not currently in place.
There is also a high likelihood that strike breakers or "scabs" would foil this plan. Club owners in New Orleans have tremendous power because there is a large a supply of musicians. If a band refuses to play for an unfair wage, there are many bands and musicians who are willing to play for the low wage and without a guarantee. As it stands, if musicians want a better deal than 20% of the bar, they do not have leverage to make that happen. There are simply too many musicians who are willing to take the primetime slots, whether they are college kids looking for any opportunity to play, weekend warriors from nearby Gulf states, or worldwide out-of-towners and transplant "hacks" who claim to be New Orleans musicians only to perform a bastardized, sub-standard version of it. This constitutes a drastic disrespect for the musical traditions of the city and serves only to undermine the creativity and integrity of local musicians who respect and value the culture.
And while there is a union, the American Federation of Musicians (AFM) union is widely disdained by members of the Frenchmen Street musician community. There seems to be evidence that the AFM has not made an effort to effectively organize musicians in the city. Since Katrina, their actions have allegedly been almost non-existent. The union has been criticized for having a very low pay scale that has not kept pace with cost-of-living, spending too much time fining members for playing with non-members on gigs, and only being useful for film and TV gigs.
Even if there was a robust union effort and organized, effective work stoppages, Louisiana is also a so-called "right-to-work" state, making it illegal to pass any legislation that would require clubs to hire union musicians or penalize them for hiring scabs. There is a fear that those musicians without integrity and who do not highly regard quality may break the strike, causing further decline on Frenchmen. Quality does not necessarily correlate with a packed house. Bar sales do not hear your integrity.
The Cover Charge Debate
Since "boostrapping" seems untenable, many musicians have raised their voices for a simple solution: a small cover charge at all the bars on Frenchmen. With a charge as low as $5, musicians expect their earnings would increase. On a busy night at Maison, BMC, or 30/90, musicians estimate that 200+ patrons enter the bar throughout a three-hour period (this figure is unverified and based on observation). While a typically busy night bar-payout may be $500–600, the cover charge payout would be $1000.
As it stands now, the audience is not paying for their musical experience. The cost of paying musicians fairly is not internalized in tourists' spending on Frenchmen. They get the same price on drinks and food that they would in places with no live entertainment. Cover charges would provide the revenue needed to compensate artists.
Furthermore, charging a cover at all clubs may necessitate greater quality and integrity on the Street — these values are very important to New Orleans musicians and culture-bearers. Can one justify a cover for music that isn't any good or is not interesting or engaging beyond its ability to aid in the sale of drinks?
There is dissent from musicians who fear that a cover charge runs contrary to the ethos of the Street and has the potential to hurt revenues by turning away patrons. A cover may mean that only true music lovers will enter the clubs on Frenchmen street, not just people who are looking for a party. They hold that this could reduce the number of people in the clubs which would hurt clubs and musicians. Separately, there is a conception among some musicians that club owners don't care about what musicians get paid. They want the most value for the least possible cost, and have found that musicians will play for a starvation wage. Many believe that even if clubs could charge a cover, they would not, preferring to stay with a low-pay bar deal.
Still, barring a large-scale, broad-based work stoppage (which could only be organized among musicians after extensive time and effort), a cover charge seems to present the most viable immediate solution to alleviate the problem of low pay.
Cultural and human demoralization in the current state
Some who argue that the musical integrity has declined on Frenchmen Street blame newcomers to the city who have no understanding of the cultural context. Others suggest that this decline may have occurred as a byproduct of the market incentive that prioritizes maximum drink sales. Musicians have identified other causes: a glut of new clubs saturating the market, increased tourist foot traffic, greater number of daily slots at the clubs, the relative desirability of familiar songs performed verbatim from recordings versus well-rehearsed, engaging, original music.
Out-of-town acts present a particular thorn in the side of working musicians. During high-profile events like Mardi Gras or Jazz Fest the typically no-cover venues do charge covers. Many of these events are put together by outside promoters, employing acts that only come to town once or twice a year. They generate a lot of money, charge high covers, and then cash out, taking the earnings out of the city. If there were regular covers on Frenchmen Street, the money from the door could stay with the musicians and be reinvested into the community. Many feel that this out-of-town activity is especially offensive since many of those musicians who demand the highest covers are not contributing to the musical enrichment of New Orleans during the rest of the year. Musicians are resentful that traveling acts and big names leave it up to the local artists to play to often empty rooms for paltry wages to keep clubs open and tourists entertained all year, only to be brushed aside for major touring bands during the highest-grossing seasons.
Health and wellness concerns also weigh on the discussion. Since compensation is pegged directly to bar sales, bands have a financial incentive to hustle the drinks and well as their music. They may implore the audience to drink more ("raise your glass") or, use techniques for encouraging sales and the party environment ("buy the band a round of drinks" and "don't forget to tip the band").
Since compensation is so low, many clubs offer free or discount alcohol and bar food to musicians and many musicians use those discounts to compensate for the paycheck they aren't making. This presents the danger for overuse and abuse, especially when consumption effectively supplements musicians' pay.
Acknowledging all these realities, some have come to the conclusion that responsibility to the culture of musical excellence in New Orleans can only be maintained by a partnership between venues and musicians. Club owners and artists must maintain mutual respect as well as a commitment to a way of life that prioritizes the music of New Orleans by the people of New Orleans. These are human projects that are hard to execute with hastily organized strong-arm tactics or simple market incentives. This will take a long-term civil discussion accompanied by clear plans of action that are inclusive of the large body of musicians.
Missing from this discussion is the input of club-owners. This may be a result of the zoning ordinances currently in effect on Frenchmen Street. Some venues on the Street are licensed as live music clubs and bars. Others are licensed as restaurants.
The establishments that pay the best, and have covers regularly, are licensed as "live-entertainment — secondary use" or "bar". Those that never charge a cover are licensed as restaurants. Restaurants are not legally allowed to charge a cover unless they are hosting special events, for which they need a specific event permit. The number of such events they are legally allowed to host is limited to 10 times each year for a total of 30 days.
The Faubourg Marigny Improvement Association (est. 1972) lobbied for the creation of the Frenchmen Arts and Cultural Diversity Overlay District, which went into effect in 2004. The area covered by the ordinance is Frenchmen Street between Royal and Esplanade, Decatur Street between Esplanade and Frenchmen, and Esplanade between N. Peters and Decatur. It is abbreviated in the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance (CZO) as zoning district AC-1. According to nola.com, the number of bars must not exceed 20% of the establishments in the three-block stretch. AC-1 stipulates that there shall be only two "bars" per blockface. Therefore, the only permits available to new establishments on Frenchmen Street since 2004 have been the "restaurant" permits.
Restaurants must generate at least 50% of their revenue from food. If they fall short of that, their alcohol license could be revoked under the CZO. In 2014, Bamboula's was warned by the Office of Alcohol and Tobacco Control that their alcohol license could be revoked if they did not generate half of their revenue from food. In 2015, they requested a change to their license from a restaurant to a cocktail lounge, because proprietor Guy Olano III did not believe this food-alcohol proportion was possible. The City Planning Commission couldn't come to a conclusion on the issue, so they sent it to the City Council where the request was denied.
Many of the other establishments licensed as restaurants are almost certainly in violation of their revenue requirements. Bamboula's contends that it attempted to come into compliance, while other businesses have been operating illegally with impunity for years. Bamboula's sued the city, stating that these unclear regulations were being selectively enforced. This could constitute a violation of property rights under the 5th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which states that "no person shall…be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law." The status of this lawsuit is unclear and is a matter for further investigation.
The only way to settle the allegations that these "restaurants" are in violation of the zoning regulations would be to audit those establishments. This risks their alcohol license being revoked, requiring them to shut down. If they were to remain open, operating as they are right now, they would have to change their license to a "bar." But this is prohibited under AC-1. That leaves those in favor of cover charges with essentially one option: lobby for the amendment or abolishment of AC-1. The only alternatives to changing the zoning ordinances would be to pressure "restaurants" to illegally charge covers (further exposing them to audit and retribution by ATC) or simply shut them down for non-compliance.
Frenchmen Street provides a paycheck for hundreds of New Orleans musicians. Thousands of people rely on it for their livelihood. While it draws ire from many corners, no one wants to see it disappear. No one wants to see it shut down. And even though pay practices are frustrating and unfair, Frenchmen embodies a musical lifestyle unparalleled in any scene nationwide: constant opportunity for work and to present original or inspiring music. Despite the challenges, it is a gem that needs regulation and careful attention if it is to maintain value and cultural currency. It is hoped that gainful change will arise from an informed public discussion with an organized partnership between business-owners and musicians.

Electronic Arts and Maxis have announced that The Sims 4 Eco Lifestyle Expansion Pack is coming simultaneously to PC, Mac, PS4, and Xbox One systems on June 5.
In the new expansion pack, Sims can join with their community to shape the transformation of their neighborhood into a blossoming beacon of sustainability and make a difference in the world around them.
The expansion pack introduces Evergreen Harbor, a unique new world where Sims have a direct influence on the state of the environment with every decision that they make. Sims can produce their own electricity and water with solar panels, wind turbines, and dew collectors, or grow their own food at home in a new vertical garden.
In addition, Sims can decorate their homes with remade furniture, dress head to toe in clothes that are sustainably made from reclaimed materials, and even work towards having a living rooftop for a splash of bright color.
Those who don't mind the smell can also go dumpster diving to scrounge up pre-used objects and ingredients to repurpose for new, creative goods for their home.
Simmers can take it a step further and implement positive changes in their community through the new Community Voting Board, which features a variety of Neighborhood Action Plans each week such as encouraging installation of eco-friendly objects, supporting green initiatives, setting up a Community Space where everyone can craft or plant together, and even changing the way their neighborhood looks.
Sims can also pursue new careers like a Civil Designer to inspire others to give back to the environment or check out a path as a Freelance Crafter to fill orders for your candles, fizzy juices, upcycled objects, and more.
The Sims 4 Eco Lifestyle Expansion Pack is rated T for Teen by the ESRB and will be available for $39.99.

Hurricane Harvey Relief Fund Needs Assessment: Phase I
The following document represents the first phase of the Kinder Institute for Urban Research's needs assessment work on behalf of the Greater Houston Community Foundation and the Hurricane Harvey Relief Fund. This fund was jointly created by Harris County Judge Ed Emmett and Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner to accept private donations to aid in hurricane relief and recovery.
This document includes an analysis of 211, 311, and Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Individual Assistance (IA) data. These three datasets begin the process of identifying key needs post-Harvey and areas that were hardest hit. This analysis is the first step in what will be a much deeper damage assessment intended for phase two.
Also contained here is a relief and recovery funding primer and discussion of post-storm vulnerable populations rounds out this document. These pieces intend to inform the Advisory Board of what needs federal, state, and local funding have provided and will provide going forward. Knowing this should allow for more direct decision-making about the most effective use of philanthropic funds. The vulnerable populations section discusses some of the challenges certain populations face in trying to access relief and recovery resources.

Google faces a record-breaking fine of $3.4 billion for abusing search monopoly
In a week, Google could be handed a notice for a record-breaking fine of (€3 billion) $3.4 billion. The fine comes in the wake of web search monopoly abuse as the European Union seeks to punish Google for taking advantage of their market position.
The EU formally notified Google of the anti-trust charges in April after an investigation which started last year. That was regarding their Android operating system which favors Google's own services over those of its competitors. This includes a practice that demands Google Search comes "pre-installed and set as the default, or exclusive, search service on most Android devices sold in Europe."

The European Union takes their anti-trust punishments very seriously. Back in 2009, microchip giant Intel was charged with €1.1 billion. However, the fine on Google is that of a record-breaking amount. The issue at hand is that the EU claims Google has promoted its own shopping results over its competitors. Google has so far denied these allegations and even have a right to challenge the claims. It should be noted here that Intel also took their matter to court and the final decision was made in 2014.
Also Read: Google's self-driving computers can now qualify as Drivers
It is expected that Google will fight for the amount being charged and it is possible for the total to change. The European Union has the right to charge Google for one-tenth of their annual sales which amounts to €3.3 billion. However, the fine is not all there is to it. Google faces a seven-year investigation into their search engine. Furthermore, they will also have to change their search practice in order to comply with the rules set by the European Union.
Google is no doubt a force to be reckoned with. They recently launched their in-house startup incubator for employees and expanded their free Wifi services in Indian Railways. The European Union is clearly concerned about Google's expansiveness and it appears they are ready to put up a fight.

Rotters in literature, John Keats' poem To Autumn, The Art of Innovation at the Science Museum
We look at rotters in fiction: do women have equal status with men when it comes to being bad in books? Rotters have populated the novel since Robert Lovelace first appeared in Samuel Richardson's Clarissa nearly two centuries ago. But what exactly is a rotter, how do rotters differ from cads and, when women are rotters, are they given equal treatment by both their writers and their readers? John Mullan, Professor of Literature at UCL and critic Alex Clark discuss the rotter's progress. "Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness, Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun…" It is 200 years, to the very day, since John Keats wrote To Autumn, distilling the sights, sounds, even smell of the season and capturing its essence in three carefully crafted stanzas that are among the best-loved in the language. We hear a reading and Alison Brackenbury explains how the poem works and her response to it as a poet. The Science Museum and BBC Radio 4 have been collaborating on an exploration of the relationship between art and science over 250 years. The result is The Art of Innovation: From Enlightenment to Dark Matter, which is an exhibition, a book and a 20-part radio series. Dr Tilly Blyth, Principal Curator, and one of the programme presenters tells Stig about Joseph Wright's famous painting of a scientific lecture; how Turner captured impact of the emerging age of steam and how artists tackle depicting science that can't be seen.

Melting Polar Ice: Alchemy of Grief
"What was cold soon warms, and warmth soon cools. So moisture dries, and dry things drown." (Heraclitus)
Disappearing polar ice has been one of the major contributing factors to global warming. This contemporary environmental problem directly impacts the future of all life on our planet. Could this self-inflicted consequence of humanity's over-indulgence be causing our Mother Earth to abandon us? What are the effects of these liquid tears on the soul of the world? During this epochal transition, how may our grief catalyze us to deeply re-connect, re-claim, and re-grow a healthier relationship with our natural home and all of its inhabitants?
This piece searches for the ecopsychological significance of melting polar ice with respect to the impact of global warming from various cultural, mythical, and philosophical perspectives. The transition of this rapid melting affects humanity and the deep mourning associated with this event provides themes for this review.
The Effects of Melting Polar Ice
Even though natural factors have always influenced the state of polar sea ice, research strongly suggests that the influence of anthropogenic carbon dioxide has accelerated current melting trends. Over the past millennia, this influence has continued to impact the earth's atmosphere.
Considering that the polar ice caps contain more than three-quarters of the earth's freshwater, this melting will continue to be a significant issue. Besides being essential for marine life, ice caps help regulate sea level and global temperatures. The melting of the ice caps increases the volume of water in the oceans and decreases the salinity. The loss of the polar ice caps will increase sea levels, reduce the amount of light reflected into space, and will contribute to a rapid increase in the overall temperature of the planet.
While carbon dioxide emissions mainly drive warming, the full effects of other variables are not fully known. For example, the release of methane from thawing permafrost and warmer less saline oceans will have increasing consequences. We have started to see how the pressure change has begun to alter atmospheric circulations, including an increase of harsh winter weather, droughts and extreme storms.
Therefore, melting polar ice has negative planetary environmental impacts. Many ecosystems are being affected, and the higher temperatures will lead to more heat-related illnesses and diseases. Changing weather patterns have already started to generate droughts, fires, and floods as well as stronger storms and increased storm damage. Economic losses will continue as environmentally based activities such as fishing, farming, and tourism have continued to be negatively affected by a changing and unpredictable climate. Most of the planet's wildlife have become innocent and unfortunate bystanders struggling for survival in the midst of this human-generated maelstrom. Earth, as we know it will continually and rapidly change her appearance as ice, uncovers new lands and rising water levels will cover-up old shorelines.
An image emerges of an elegant old grand dame enduring unfathomable stress causing her to age faster than she should. In Susan Griffin's book Women and Nature: The Roaring Inside Her she writes: "When the water approaches me the shape of the wave is changed. And when the tide ebbs, you will see, I too, have changed".
We may be witnessing a form of escalated evolution.
Ecopsychological Significance
In our hearts, we know there is something maniacal about the way we are abusing the planetary environment. And, as Theodore Roszak asks, where can we turn to find a standard of sanity that comprehends our environmental condition?
A long time ago, all psychologies were ecopsychologies, and those who did soul work assumed that human nature was part of the interconnected web of all existence, including any unseen powers of the cosmos. Today the field of Ecopsychology can generally be defined as the study of the interrelationship between people and the natural world. This interrelationship has become more evident due to the rapidly changing environment. It has also impacted people and their societies on many different levels.
In The Practice of the Wild Gary Snyder writes about the dichotomy of the civilized and the wild. This separateness has relegated nature to the status of other, but it is in the resolution of this dichotomy that healthy planetary survival resides:
"To speak of wilderness is to speak of wholeness. Human beings came out of that wholeness, and to consider the possibility of reactivating membership in the Assembly of All Beings is in no way regressive".
The melting polar ice has become categorized as a wilderness outside of our common view. And without actively belonging to any community, the polar ice continues to slip into the vast oceans. Snyder further suggests that we "make a world-scale 'Natural Contract' with the oceans, the air, and the birds in the sky" that would bring the issue of the climate crisis into the Mind of the Commons.
Snyder describes how we live in a backward time. "The world of culture and nature, which is actual, is almost a shadow world now, and the insubstantial world of political jurisdictions and rarefied economies is what passes for reality". This backward reality led me to believe that because the polar ice caps are not a part of any significant world populations and have an undetermined economic benefit, they have fallen into a kind of no man's land.
It is likely that the unresolved issues of national boundaries and borders will fully explode once the polar caps have disappeared and the new land plus potential resources have become more evident and accessible. On institutional level governments and corporations are not motivated to slow the transition of the melting polar ice. Like vultures waiting for a rich relative to die, they rub their hands greedily and salivate at the potential spoils.
Vandana Shiva links climate injustice to water injustice. She states the obvious that "water is life, but too much or too little of it can become a threat to life" . Only when the atmospheric saturation by carbon dioxide reduces will climate, and water issues become tamed.
While subverting international struggle to avert climate disaster makes economic sense for oil companies, it spells political and ecological disaster for much of the earth's community. More than anything, the oil economy's environmental externalities, such as atmospheric pollution and climate change, will determine the future of water, and through water, the future of all life on earth.
Shiva outlines how the struggle has already begun and maintains that water wars are not a thing of the future:
"These wars are both paradigm wars — conflicts over how we perceive and experience water — and traditional wars, fought with guns and grenades. These clashes of water cultures are taking place in every society".
How will we bridge this global clash of water viewed as a sacred element necessary to the preservation of life and the corporate view of water as a commodifiable resource? This reality gap is the most fundamental and crucial question that humanity will need to address immediately. How would our ancestors advise us on this issue?
Icy Myths
Around the world, water plays a significant role in many Indigenous creation myths. For example, the Jicarilla Apache believe "in the beginning the earth was covered with water and all living things were below in the underworld. Then people could talk, the animals could talk, the trees could talk, and the rocks could talk". It is interesting how everything and everyone was connected and communicated even under a blanket of water.
A quick search through Tamra Andrew's Dictionary of Nature Myths only uncovers a couple of examples involving ice. In Greek mythology, there was Boreas, the god of the north wind and of winter, whose hair and beard was spiked with ice and Boreas' daughter, Khione, who was the goddess of snow. There was one additional northern reference.
In Norse mythology, frost giants personified the cold northern European winters. The early settlers of Iceland and the Germanic lands fought a constant battle with the elements; their world became dominated by icy waters, crashing waves, monstrous glaciers, and bitter cold. Somehow, the settlers had to defeat that challenge by creating frost giants, the first living beings. Like the wild, destructive forces of nature, the Giants had to be defeated.
From an Indigenous perspective "the myths of the Arctic lands reflected the continual battle the Inuit fought with the elements….people who did survive faced the constant threat of starvation … they believed that only by the goodness of the spirits would they survive". So it is not unusual that the place or purpose of ice, as a major threat to survival, would not have had a positive place in ancestral memory.
This might suggest that ice and specifically polar ice throughout the ages has not enjoyed a position of historical importance. Survival and endurance seem to be humankind's experience of ice. So why should humanity want to grieve the loss of something that has been so harsh to our survival? Has the collective unconscious noticed this? Maybe this is one of the deeper reasons behind the overall lack of care and concern for these remote parts of the natural world.
If humanity does survive these significant climate changes what new myths might be created for future generations to consider and remember? How will indigenous and non-indigenous stories record the mourning and the loss of the polar ice?
Philosophical Ponderings
"there is one principal attribute of every substance….which contains its nature and essence and to which all the other properties are referred." (René Descartes).
What is the attribute of ice, melting polar ice, and climate change?
This is a profound question on a problematic and complex global problem. At the surface, it would appear that humankind has begun to self-destruct and yet on a deeper level something else must have happened to allow, if not enable these changes to occur. We have become so disconnected that we do not know what we are doing to ourselves and future generations. Does nature herself play a part in this metamorphosis?
Gaston Bachelard wrote that nature is narcissistic because of her ability to reflect in water. Has nature helped in this transition by melting the ice to see more of herself?: "The true eye of the earth is water… In our eyes it is water that dreams. In nature it is once again water that sees and water that dreams". Not ice, water. To see the earth more clearly and to dream, perhaps we need more water, more fresh water to begin to reduce, moderate, and dissolve the salinity of civilization.
The dissolution of fresh water into the salt water from polar ice packs and icebergs, in general, continues to be a noisy event. From crashing catastrophic events such as collapsing ice sheets to bubbling effervescence from icebergs, the forced marriage of fresh and salt water is not very harmonious nor graceful. "Water has indirect voices", writes Bachelard, "Nature resounds with ontological echoes. Of all the elements, water is the most faithful 'mirror of voices". With the substantial increase of noise from the polar ice caps, what does this mirror tell us and how could humanity more fully listen to all the apparent changes surrounding us?
This listening is different from that undertaken when heading into the wilderness as relief from the stresses of life. In his book, Coming Home to the Pleistocene, Paul Shepard writes:
"We hear increasingly about the spiritual uplift derived from a 'wilderness experience.' The great ecologist Sir Frank Darling describes this spiritual re-creation as 'the privilege of the few,' adding that 'I have an uneasy feeling deep down that we should not burden the wilderness with this egocentric human purpose. The wilderness does not exist for our recreation or delectation. This is something we gain from its great function of being.' "
Is mourning the melting polar ice an activity that only the privileged can afford? Cynicism aside, I do believe it is necessary to connect spirit, soul, soil (water) and science. And this has always been my simple personal practice of Ecopsychology, that of reconnection.
Alchemy of Grief
"Desolation … something common to psyche and to wilderness alike." (Edward Casey)
Jung believed the loss of emotional participation in Nature has resulted in a sense of cosmic and social isolation. The melting polar ice and related global warming have also produced deep feelings of public and private grief.
As the polar ice melts, it continues to displace many known and unknown components within various ecosystems. The displacement of one of the most basic elements of life has produced a certain desolation within our individual and collective psyches. Consciously and unconsciously we acknowledge, worry, deny, fear, and grieve the loss of polar ice as earth's climate rapidly changes. The experience of desolation occurs with humanity facing an uncertain future of unknown environmental conditions.
Edward Casey suggests that places also require mourning. "Decathexis is a major part of the work of mourning. We mourn places as well as people, and as part of the process we must decathect from both". The challenge with mourning the disappearing polar ice is that it is with hindsight we have appreciated their importance. This is similar to grieving a distant relative you never really got to know, but realize they had a major role supporting the health and well-being of your family.
Should humanity respectfully say thank you and goodbye to the polar ice? And maybe, at the same time, Earth has started to say goodbye to us.
In The Earth Has a Soul: C.G. Jung on Nature, Technology & Modern Life, Meredith Sabini reminds us that "Jung sees the necessity of restoring to Nature its original wholeness and considered matter and spirit as equal mysteries. Matter is the tangible exterior of things and spirit the nonvisible interior". How do we facilitate the reconnection of matter and spirit within a scientifically dehumanized world? What alchemical process could transform this fracture back into a healthy whole?
The alchemy of polar ice is the steamy liminal space between ice and water, too much heat and it melts, not enough heat, and it freezes. The constant tension between these two may be a metaphor for what is being played out in the collective psyche and soul of the world. Perhaps nature's spirit is causing the ice to melt as an indication that it is time to unfreeze our old, and outdated, ways of living on the earth. Nature has been pushed to release some of her ancient wisdom for the sake of warning the world that we are on a path to destruction.
A Watery Closing
"As souls change into water on their way through death, so water changes into earth. And as water springs from earth, so from water does the soul." (Heraclitus).
There is no denying that the melting polar ice has contributed to global warming. And there is a great deal of speculation as to whether we have passed the point of no return. But a more significant consideration is understanding what is profoundly transpiring within the psyche of humanity. This is the great work of Ecopsychology right now, to help humankind acknowledge and reconnect with the natural world during this great time of transition and mourning.
If we do not reconnect, the natural ecosystems will adapt accordingly, as Gary Snyder reminds us in his poignant and provocative question: "what does mother nature do best when left to her own long term strategies". Considering the increasing rate of melting polar ice and the related irreversible changes, we will not like her answer.
