"In 1970s, the Paris river was considered biologically dead thanks to severe pollution; much of the city’s wastewater poured into it untreated, and wildlife all but disappeared.

After decades of improved sanitation, its ecosystem is thriving, and the number of fish species has tripled since 1990."
Fish Are Thriving in the River Seine
For years, the storied French waterway was nearly biologically dead. Now, it’s teeming with marine life once again, as it did centuries ago.

A reminder of however bad things get
No matter how dark the skies seems
This too shall pass
And the flowers with grow out of the bones of our pain, and ultimately fade them away
A tank, possibly from the Yugoslav wars, sitting rusted in a field of flowers, the implication being the weight of time to erode away this relic of pain, and turn the former mud into vibrant life Three panel graphic of tree cover on Mt Saint Helens before, after, and now, following the eruption, showcasing the totalizing destruction, but also how quickly life returns and consumes the literal ashes of destruction A field of red paintbrush flowers on St. Helens A stand of dead trees all lying at angles on a hill on the mountain, presumably from being blown down in the concussive force, standing like iron pikes stabbing out of the ground, while myriad colorful flowers choke in and around them, giving the impression of life swallowing up this relic of destruction, in a haunting beauty
