@npub1uul…dkn7 For anyone interested in the latest AMOC (ocean currents) research & its relation to climate change this discussion is pretty informative - https://www.thegreatsimplification.com/episode/124-levke-caesar

@npub15zu…s7lx Their name for humans translates as "Idiots" When they voice it they have to also make a big eye roll.
Whales don't speak of us, they just fart in our general direction.

The steel industry has been growing exponentially the past few decades. It relies heavily on coal, oil, & gas to do so. The coal, oil, & gas industries rely heavily on steel, so does the military & wind turbines. There is a feed back loop that needs interrupting. A conclusion from this very detailed article - "The only solution is to reduce material use overall."

WTF Wyoming? "In addition to wolves, Wyoming considers coyotes, jackrabbits, porcupine, raccoons, red fox, skunks and stray cats as predators. Running any of those animals over with a snowmobile is currently legal in the predator zone." Which is 85% of the state.

My wife has prepared me for a woman dominated environment. I've adapted pretty well, bring it on.

@npub1qzc…yetl The first article I read this morning, of a river that has always held a special place in my mind & heart, even though I've yet to see it. Melting permafrost is killing it. The consequences of our pernicious behavior are far reaching in both space & time.

Do you ever give a sound rating for grinders? Wife has hyperacusis and my Bodum burr grinder about splits her head open. Looking for something suitable for my Europiccola.

Great interview. Capitalism, Colonialism, Fossil-fuel Supremacy taking us for a ride. Love the concept of Etuaptmumk - Two-Eyed Seeing, learning to see from one eye with the strengths of Indigenous knowledges and ways of knowing, and from the other eye with the strengths of Western knowledges and ways of knowing ... and learning to use both these eyes together, for the benefit of all.

The Whitebark Pine lives in the Northern Rockies & Cascades at fairly high elevations. Its seeds are crucial to the diet of Grizzly bears & other forest critters. The bears raid the middens of squirrels at a time when other food sources are scarce. The Whitebark is endangered due to pine blister rust & pine beetles, which are on the rise in part due to #ClimateChange. #ThickTrunkTuesday #Trees #Environment #WY #Mountains
