#LandBack across Turtle Island, #Regenerative agriculture, and a #bioregional approach to economics would all but bring an end to the "Anthropocene". #decolonisation #PostGrowth #HonourTheTreaties #DoughnutEconomics #CircularEconomy

"#Regenerate Cascadia takes a #bioregional approach to solving environmental problems and aims to restore a reciprocal relationship between humans and the ecosystems they live in. Bioregionalism argues colonial boundaries ignore the natural boundaries of ecosystems and how local communities interact with those ecosystems. Instead of addressing environmental problems at a municipal, provincial or national scale, ...

Reorganizing - After considerable soul searching and technological jiggery-pokery, I'm restructuring my online presence among Worpress, Substack and Mastodon. I'm trying to find a balance of local, bioregional and global issues with local bioregional solutions.

Hard to accomplish in these days of digital distractions, but how else to get the word out and engage others?

A little #thread about two subjects near and dear to me: #Bioregional #Planning, and #PublicLands

First off, to understand what’s going on with #demographic #migrant #trends in the #usa I’d encourage everyone to read “The Great Displacement: #ClimateChange and the Next #American Migration,” by Jake Bittle. Check the #map below to orient yourself to the #issue.

One of my goals is to localize my #Mexican #cooking - instead of importing a bunch of stuff that goes into "real" #MexicanFood, especially during the winter, I want to get better at working with what grows here in the #PNW. Winter squashes; mushrooms; leeks; pears and apples; fiddleheads; salmon; even localized veggies from other cultures like #Chinese or #Japanese veggies.

Anyone have any inspiration or #recipes?

Back to the future with a new bioregional journal

Cascadia has a new bioregional journal, Cascadia Spoke. The journal is a revival of that good old medium that has graced the world with so many great journals, bioregional and other. Paper and print.

The journal is the brainchild of Brandon Letsinger, who as an organizer, promoter and entrepreneur has a lot to do with the spread of the Cascadia idea in recent years. He was pivotal in creation of the Cascadia Department of Bioregion site, which offers a comprehensive overview of the bioregional concept and its application in Cascadia, the watersheds draining into the Pacific from what is now known as Northern California to Southeast Alaska.

3-1/2 hrs today talking about #bioregional activation for #regenerative projects with support from the amazing community of EarthRegenerators(dot)org.

@skyfishgoo Oooohh!...has there been changes in our understanding of #PlanetaryBoundaries since 2009!! However, the dominant culture's double down on dogmatic economic ideology continues the trajectory, refusing all evidence to the contrary. Since @jasonhickel book #LessIsMore I've been an ardent support of #degrowth and #Regenerative economies through re-Indigenising with a #bioregional focus.

But that is just my idiosyncratic journey of continuing to rage against the machine ;).

You've heard of the 100 mile diet, but what about the 100 mile house? Steven Martyn, author of The Roundhouse, tells me all about Bioregional Building and more on this week's episode of Tiny House Lifestyle Podcast.

I make my own incense to use and sell in my shop. While I usually gather plants, berries and resins for this specific purpose, it is also a good use for the bits of plant material left over from other uses. It is respectful of the plant to use all the parts you have gathered and not waste anything. I use both wild and garden herbs, flowers, bark, resin, leaves and stalks. I use pine, fir, spruce, cedar, bark, cones, leaves and resin. I use flowers such as yarrow, lavender, rose and clover. I add crushed berries such as saskatoons, mahonia or elderberry as well as honey and mead for binding. Making my own incense 2 or 3 times per year is intensely satisfying and a spiritual way to honour the land. It is also a great alternative to buying incense and resins from countries on the other side of the world that are often from endangered species or exploited sources. While I do have a few from other places I have visited, namely Glastonbury, I use them only for very special occasions as I won't be replacing them when they run out. I was inspired by the Glastonbury incenses from Star Child (they use local ingredients) and the scent takes me right back to the Red Spring. I've now created new scent memories with my own blends used for special ceremonies and rituals right here.

I never posted an #introduction after migrating a couple weeks ago, so here goes:

I’m a home cook, amateur #foodhistory and #ecology/#sustainability researcher, and nascent blogger (URL in profile) interested in #vegan cooking and #bioregional/#local cuisines, as well as #rawfood, #fermentation, #foraging, #staplefoods, #bulkfoods, and #zerowaste. Also curious about how food culture gets mediated through print, digital, and manuscript mediums. However, my interests (+ideals) exceed my reality!

Wenn die Menschen sich doch nur so verhalten würden, wie sie es sich in Umfragen vorstellen können. 🤔

Zitat aus dem Artikel: "Die drei wichtigsten Maßnahmen, um die ernährungsbedingten Emissionen zu reduzieren, sind tatsächlich Umstellung auf eine sehr stark pflanzliche Ernährung. Reduktion der Abfälle, also so wenig wie möglich Nahrungsmittel wegwerfen. Und dann muss noch die Produktion so emissionsarm wie möglich gestaltet werden."

Ist doch klar: Sie ist extrem verantwortungsbewusst 😉 - vorausgesetzt, wir achten dabei auch auf #bioregional.

Es lohnt sich, auch bei bisher als "exotisch" geltenden Produkten unter dem Aspekt #bioregional genauer hinzuschauen. Auch ein #paradoxon : Die Folgen des Klimawandels nutzen, um den #klimawandel aufzuhalten.
