Thank you for interviewing Mary. I first discovered Mary when living in Canada and have since been wanting to meet her. Now that I'm living in Donegal, having returned last June after a 50 yr hiatus I'm looking forward to going to Wexford and also, now that you've let us know of it, to the old oak forest in Wicklow. With regard to Mary's mission, if you will, I too feel it's crucial that we, as a nation, wake up to the fact that the land is bare and we need to restore her to her former glory. Wouldn't it be great if someone like Mary would spear head a Rally for the Land and Language in the form of a Caravan of Traditional Gypsy horse drawn caravans, painted brightly with our old rallying cry BEIR BUA and Rally for Land & Language or, as gaelige, Rally for Tir agus Teanga; which ever way you say it sounds good. Mary could take to the stage every evening in every small town and major city in Ireland and like in her TEDx talk in Wexford give a resounding slap to the Irish people to wake up or else we're all dead. As *Padraig Pearse* said *Tir gan Teanga is Tir gan Anam* a land without language is a land without soul. Likewise a land without trees will eventually turn to desert. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thar_Desert, just for example. One day I hope to meet Mary and tell her of my vision. I'm reminded of the *Project Greenhands* in India www.projectgreenhands.org/ when I think of this Rally and how we need to teach our children that raising a pet tree would be a great thing to do along with their pet animals. In India they have already successfully completed a *Rally for Rivers* and the 700 page document on how to turn the dire situation around, and which was presented to the Modi Government at the end of the Rally in Delhi, is now being implemented all across the farming sectors of India. In this small country of Ireland we could easily follow India's example even to the point of implement the solutions / methods, already worked out by top environmentalists in the Tamil University as to how to reverse the dearth of trees, and implement a new kind of agriculture where Irish farmers could earn from horticultural practices rather than the present focus on grass fed cattle, for example. Thank you again. Kind regards, Seamus Duggan, Bailie an Easa, An Fal Carrach, Co. Dun na nGall
