Imagine if farmers had the option of being paid to rewild their land, just as they are to produce a few lamb chops (for eg), allowing immensely rich natural habitats like rainforest to return.
Imagine if the land was actually helping to *reverse* ecological + climate breakdown.
This week:
— Missouri Republicans passed a new rule banning women lawmakers from showing their arms
—Alabama’s Republican Attorney General said women can be jailed for abortion pills
—Oklahoma Republicans intro’d a bill to jail women for abortions
But gas stoves.
Trash pickup day 1,267. This was an 80 minute pickup.#EarthCleanUp
I don't like talking about climate change in my cleanup videos, but I am forced yet again.
This has gotten both ridiculous and now outright dangerous. It must stop. Cult mentality is near impossible to overcome.
Trump has already sold out all 45,000 of his $99 digital trading cards. The same people screaming about “inflation” and “gas prices” just paid $99 for a single JPEG image.
Around 1 million species now face extinction, many within the next few decades. We are facing multiple crises at the same time.
There is no time to waste. Time to protect nature and ourselves.

We’ve been conditioned to consume at levels that should make us nauseous.
#Degrowth isn’t about ‘giving stuff up’, it’s about a society coming to its senses.
@mes271@IsaakAhmed4 @RabbiHarvey Israel is a unique mix of religion and democracy. For those who are Jewish, certain religious laws apply. But they do not apply to the rest of the population.
@mes271@IsaakAhmed4 @RabbiHarvey Only if the government and leaders are religious leaders. Saudi Arabia is by definition a Muslim country. And yes, Christians in Israel are free to buy and sell pork, without riots in the streets.
The climate crisis is the single greatest issue facing humankind today.
Our civilization is unsustainable.
Are we going to sit back and wait for the clock to run out?
Or are we going to take this issue head on? We're lucky to even have that choice. Let's make the right one.
@ClimateDad77 I agree, and... it's never that simple. When people drastically reduce driving and flying that will affect those and related industries > unemployment and so on. It's a belief system and way of life we all have to buy into.
I had a guy friend with a Ph.D in engineering ask me last week how women pee with a tampon in and this is why men shouldn’t be passing laws about women’s bodies.
@katiefhurley Because we know how effective that is (not) in raising mentally and physically healthy adults😖 compliant today, potentially violent tomorrow.
Tiny urban forests can help #rewild urban settings and help fight #climatechange. The brainchild of the Japanese botanist Miyawaki is taking his idea global.
We have so many solutions. Let's stop the delays and implement them. #ActOnClimate#climate#forests#nature
Germany 🇩🇪 has some of most environmentally friendly trains in the world. They are powered by hydrogen and oxygen. The only waste they produce is water.
We have the solutions. Time to ditch fossil fuels & implement them.
