The most advanced technologies in the world are trees, mycelium networks, river systems, and entire ecosystems. I’m personally tired of idolizing human made technology that destroys the very systems that actually sustain life and hold real wisdom.
@yumtapwater off topic but what's the e bike rental situation like atm. I'm coming for a visit and don't want to rent a car, will be near trails, Are those lime bikes still around everywhere?
Vean como se ve la lucha popular de los pueblos indígenas de Bolivia, que han llenado de barricadas el pais para proteger sus recursos naturales y evitar que el régimen de Rodrigo Paz los entregue a Trump y a EEUU.
Por lo que sea, esta lucha del pueblo boliviano no la enseñan en TV, vaya a ser que tomen ejemplo en otros países y luchen por el futuro de su tierra, expulsando a la lacra imperialista y fascista del pais.
Farmers have figured out that the cheapest pesticide is a strip of flowers.
When you plant wildflowers through a crop field, not just around the edge but in strips running through the middle, you get ladybugs, lacewings, hoverflies, and parasitic wasps living in the field instead of visiting it.
They eat the aphids, the caterpillars, and the mites for free, all summer long.
In controlled trials, fields with tailored flower strips had leaf-beetle numbers 40 to 50% lower and crop damage cut by around 60%, enough to drop below the threshold where spraying was even considered worth it.
The flowers attract a standing army to our fields.
We spent decades engineering chemicals to kill the insects eating the crop, when the insects that eat those insects would have worked for the price of seed.
I just want to point out....
The amount of money the United States has spent on war in the last 67 days, is roughly the same cost that Bernie Sanders proposed for universal college. So the real question is never can we afford it, it's what we choose to prioritize.
@MVGutierrezMD@AnkerBuchter I don’t know where to look anymore for Covid levels. I follow accounts that post data but it’s not easy to read. I thought Covid might be high now because I hear about cicada variant. Where can I check levels as a non sciencey person?
