@kylie_walzak I like how the first three questions are travel related. And, perhaps they should have added how you source the food you eat. We buy very little produce since we grow so much of our own.

“If a community can have a say over their community, that community is going to be healthier and stronger. They will protect and defend their community, their rivers, their streams, their mountains, their forests.”

[Lydia Jennings, Ph.D. @1NativeSoilNerd]

"World leaders cannot suggest they will protect Mother Earth—which is how many Indigenous cultures speak of nature—within a capitalist economy that commodifies her well-being. That’s not protection; that’s profit."

@TessEractica @ByIanJames @mwdh2o @latimes Yes to native shade trees and native plant rain gardens! Soil can still be compacted beneath lawns. Most/all lawn irrigation is lost to evapotranspiration.

@tonydavis987 98F @watershedmg’s Living Lab today. We have a bit of a green cooling oasis effect.

@ByIanJames @mwdh2o @latimes Goodbye lawns?!

Starting on Friday, Denver residents can get an instant $400 rebate for buying an e-bike, or $500 off an e-cargo bike.

The city's incentive goes up to $1200 for those with limited income.

@kgun9 The challenge for government is how to ensure we develop while preserving water, open land access, and equitable transit to ensure watershed and community health.

Standard development practices do not help the long term health of our community.

Wow! Thanks @azpublicmedia for sharing this story about eradicating an invasive riparian species with our community.

@Tucson_DTM Where’s the protected bike lanes and priority transit lanes? I’m not interested in commuting via Broadway despite wanting to support those local businesses.

I enjoyed the integration of the interactive map to help review and comment.

Thanks David Goggins! This is always great for getting my butt back out when feeling tired.

[David Goggins @davidgoggins]

We must fight with all we have to achieve the very things we want to achieve. Just know that things are not going to get easier, you need to get harder!

Stay hard!

Thankful to have participated in one of the community races to celebrate our connection to the Earth pre-Covid. Thanks @AnthonyAFjr for sharing your perspective.
