Letters to the Editor: Notre Dame’s stunning resurrection is a parable for fixing the planet

LA Times  

To the editor: Paris’ Notre Dame Cathedral, restored and more beautiful than ever, is a testament to what can be accomplished in the face of adversity when we come together to realize a shared goal. Let the magnificent success of Notre Dame’s revival inspire us to quell the flames of this crisis and restore our world to ever more beauty and health. Surely this is a moment that warrants a response equal to the resources, urgency and loving care that went into Notre Dame’s resurrection. To the editor: I was both gratified and thrilled to read about the reopening of Paris’ beloved Notre Dame Cathedral — until I saw that President-elect Donald Trump accepted French President Emanuel Macron’s invitation to the ceremony.
