During my run yesterday, I was reflecting on last week's Conservation Land Foundation's Friends Summit. This wasn't merely an event; it was a reunion of passionate leaders united by a cause that stretches far beyond the confines of conference rooms and PowerPoint presentations. At its core, it's a celebration of what happens when we dare to imagine—and strive for—a world where nature isn’t just a backdrop to our daily lives but a vital, thriving part of it. “Protect What Matters”. Honestly, could there be a more timely call to arms? To protect what matters, we need all hands on deck — from policymakers to grassroots activists, from corporations to individual citizens. The path ahead is as daunting as it is necessary, but together, there’s no challenge we can’t overcome. Here’s to the next chapter in our journey. May it be one of bold actions, deeper connections, and unwavering dedication to the cause that has brought us together. Let’s keep the conversation going, lean into the discomfort, and, most importantly, never lose sight of the fact that we’re fighting not just for the world as it is, but for the world as it could be. #ConservationLandsFoundation

THE SILENT CALL OF THE WILDERNESS —Venter Mwongera The Silent Call of the Wilderness is a novel advocating for the protection of the environment and wildlife. The novel stresses on the interrelation of plant, animal and human life in relation to coexistence and maintenance of the life cycle. Many tend to forget that we can never escape the careless treatment to the environment, cutting down trees, invading forests with settlements as was the case in the Serengeti when the first chapter unfolds. It is due to this carelessness that we see the adverse effects of man’s actions; dried up rivers, scarcity of food for wildlife leading to extinction and loss of general beauty of the environment. We get to see through the eyes of the animals; the direct inhabitants of the forest ecosystem and get to feel their pain as they observe their ‘end’ with no power to stop humans from this forceful menacing invasion and selfishness. As the novel progresses, we witness how unified purpose and pure intentions of creating a sustaining development of the ecosystem and the educating of future generations towards proper relationship with the wild life is vital for the progression of human animal interaction: That in some way when animals of the wild are not affected by drought and famine; humans get to benefit as well from this beauty. The book is meant for all audiences; the young and the old, men and women, inside and outside Africa (the scene not being a limiting factor). Everyone needs to learn the importance of the environment and the direct impact that the environment has on their lives and with that knowledge; avoid careless actions like deforestation which may lead to very un-preferable repercussions.
