    <strong>Last Week:</strong> &nbsp;While so much has caught our attention this week, including woman&rsquo;s reproductive rights, campus security, right to privacy, race relations, a small story about the extinction of the Sestos Skipper and Rockland Grass Skipper butterflies caught my attention - hitting a deeper more profound chord.&nbsp; While the two butterflies in themselves may be appreciated by some for their aesthetic beauty, they were part of a web of interacting organisms with potential impacts to our supply of food and medicine. There is a past, present and future value for each living organism - but extinction is permanent - erasing any possibility for the future and more than likely affecting us in as yet unknown ways. As a barometer of the health of our environment and its longer term prospects, being able to identify local species is important to understanding our surroundings.&nbsp; When a species has permanently lost the ability to survive - that is a story that deserves our attention.&nbsp; We need to learn why and gain a broader understanding of the impact of such events.
