#ClimateChange turns more places into #deserts . Sucking #CO2 out of the air can’t undo all the damage.

Send me a picture of your personal pantry #disasters with #altText. I'll take that as representative sample ingredients to start making impromptu #deserts with. #Cooking and/or #parenting #Adventures may follow and if so, I'll keep you appraised.
Here's mine.

The answer may lie more in the idea of 're-caring' than #rewilding: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/jun/24/beyond-the-fence-what-does-it-mean-to-rewild-the-australian-desert

Must have a Gula Melaka when in Malacca. The Gula Melaka down here is quite different from what you get in, say, Penang. There it’s more sweet and not as strong. Here it’s more fragrant. It’s quite nice here. #GulaMelaka #Malacca #travels #deserts #Malaysia

The fact that people are moving to Arizona in the numbers they are just baffles me, and the addiction to population growth at every level of government there is horrifying.

Why replacing #lead #pipes with PVC is "leaping from the frying pan into fire;" how “crustivoltaics” can restore #deserts; and life in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. Those stories and more in the current newscast of “This Week in #Water” from H2O Radio. Soak it in! https://bit.ly/3CzL6tn

Beach holidays in Antarctica will be very attractive, especially with subsidised flights
Europe will drain the #mediterranean to stop people fleeing from advancing #deserts
But the Dow will be fine.

Last of the evening sun illuminates the torn, twisted and chaotic upheaval that comprises the Desierto del Gorafe. In the distance, the snow capped peaks of the Sierra de Cazorla.

Understanding Australian Deserts
A marvellous new book by Dr Steve Morton, who has spent his life studying Australian Deserts, gives us a chance to put these awe-inspiring spaces into proper perspective.
Image from 'Australian Deserts'
Australian deserts are not Hollywood deserts; they are not the Sahara, endless stretches of bakin

The Desert Agave is a striking plant seen in parts of the Southwest. This one was among many in Anza Borrego State Park in East San Diego County.

Do you know the geological explanation for its presence on the plain? If this is a bajada landform, could it have been rolled across it by a flash flood? What landscape lies behind the viewer?
