‘The thinner tree was cut years ago and the big one has been holding and feeding it since then. They "wake up" together in the spring and "go to sleep" together in the autumn’

Inosculation is a natural phenomenon in which parts of two different trees, commonly but not exclusively the same species, grow together, self grafting and sharing nutrients

The term emanates from latin- ōsculārī, to kiss

Why replacing orange street lights is an aesthetic downgrade — and bad for our health:

[The Cultural Tutor @culturaltutor]

The most important thing about street lighting is that it does its job — that it functions.

But, all being said and done, it seems that orange street lighting is actually better for us and, in a scientific way, more aesthetically appropriate.

Orange is the light of the night.

[The Cultural Tutor @culturaltutor]

But there's no reason why we can't change the colour of the light LEDs emit.

Why shouldn't they be skeuomorphic too?

[The Cultural Tutor @culturaltutor]

Wildlife also suffers from more intense light at night — it is fundamentally confusing for all creatures to be exposed to daylight after sunset.

Not to forget light pollution in general. Sodium lamps were already bad in this regard, but LED lighting has only made things worse.

[The Cultural Tutor @culturaltutor]

But, more to the point, intense colour temperatures keep us awake — because they are similar to daylight, and so our body tells us to stay awake.

Hence doctors have warned that white LEDs will disrupt our circadian rhythms and our ability to sleep — and even damage our eyesight.
