I really don't feel safe knowing that there are 3-mile long weapons of mass destruction that rely on 19th century technology moving across the country every day.

Twenty cars holding natural gas would have the same explosiveness as the bomb dropped on Hiroshima.

This needs to change....[[|:-(

I like this - remembering we aren't human all the way through because we rely on other organisms, eg bacteria, that are inside us.

Realizing this changes our relationship with nature.

Where does being human stop and "the rest" of the natural world begin?

Today I was reminded of the guy, Frank Luntz, who went to my high school. He is the person responsible for the USA shift in referring to the environmental crisis with the word “climate.” He knew that the word “climate” resonates with people in a much more gentle and less frightening way, so he knew it would tamp down our reactions to the urgent need for systems-level solutions. The language shift came from the radical right and it was intentional.

Synthetic fibers discovered in Antarctic air, seawater, sediment and sea ice

“The concentration of microplastics was also discovered by the team to be far higher in sea ice than in other sample types. Research indicates that microplastics are being trapped during the creation of the sea-ice layer every year.”

I’m loving that in my first 2 days here I’m seeing plenty of folk joining this ecoevo.social server (instance?) and their introductions are like (to paraphrase) “I’m into and but also and “. I mean I’m not surprised, is the fundamental driver of the current so these interests are really are the SAME side of the same coin

4/4… navigated around covid quickly to produce even greater which we all know will only exacerbates our long-term.

So yes freedom is needed, but so we can *choose* (CS).

Our big concern is that the younger generation will turn their backs on CS if we allow corporate pillage of their childhood under a guise of . Tainting both and environmental causes, integral to CS.

Tough choices ahead.
