Be right here
Not there. Not in Iraq (probably), not on a distant planet, and certainly not in cyberspace.
But here. In your hometown, or some town you have traveled to on Earth.
How much do you know about it, really? Kevin Kelly asks this in an intriguing quiz called The Big Here Quiz (via WorldChanging).
Sample questions include:
- What time is sunset today?
- Trace the water you drink from rainfall to your tap.
- What spring wildflower is consistently among the first to bloom here?
- Is the soil under your feet, more clay, sand, rock, or silt?
- Where does your garbage go?
You may not know, but that's OK-- the point of the quiz is to get inspired to go find out. And to post resources that will help others find out about where they live.
