@Five_2Bravo@iamyesyouareno@grok can you give an approximate number of people that were killed as a result of colonisation all over the world by white people.
@Five_2Bravo@iamyesyouareno Yes all the whites landed all over the world and felt it their moral obligation to take over the natives, and if not exterminate them. You are only reading your own history and we all know how the story goes. Do some soul searching and you might see what you all have done.
@Five_2Bravo@iamyesyouareno Pure white bullshit you are peddling. The western countries with with their exploitative strategies and no producer responsibility have destroyed all the civilisation that was there. Shame on you all to keep reminding you that you went all over the world killing, looting. Civil?
Very informative Mangrove (hental bana) discussion in progress now at Orissa State Museum Conference Hall, Bhubaneswar with @visualthinkin (from Goa) speaking very succinctly
@zomatocare Why privately so you can hide your harassment of your customers? You closed the case I opened without resolving and then asking for ratings! Do you even have an idea how your employees are behaving? Urgently return my money, I don’t need the gift card!!!
@zomatocare where is your customer service support? I have been trying to claim a gift card since past 30 mins and it’s terrible how unusable your appp and website is. There is also no support number. Will uninstall this stupid app once I get my money back. How can I?
Agricultural soils are a major depository of nanoplastics.
Nanoplastics readily move from soil into crops, being taken up by roots and translocated throughout the plant, eventually ending up in the edible parts.
Not only do nanoplastics hinder the physiology of plants, they have also been shown to reduce levels of mineral elements, amino acids, and fatty acid profiles in crops.
A recent study revealed the extent of the mineral decline caused by nanoplastic uptake in crops. In rice, calcium declined by 19%, magnesium by 18%, manganese by 41%, and zinc by 27%.
Reductions in plant growth, size, and germination rates were also observed.
This is yet another contributor to the declining health of our food system, and finding a solution won’t be easy.

Was really great to have supported this critical study using drawings and visual facilitation. The drawings enabled the participants to connect to the subject matter in a more direct and deeper way.
At the National Briefing of the release of the crucial report Foresight Agroeco2050. This study was done in collaboration with @FAO@CIRAD where we envisage 2 scenarios - The world in 2050 (i) If we continue Business as usual and (ii) a complete shift to Natural farming (1/10)
On Aug 10- 11, @SocratusW curated a convening at the AGROECOLOGY DONOR CONVENTION 2023 @FundAgroecology (BAF). In line with our #ecosystems approach at Socratus, BAF is committed to revolutionizing #foodsystems by #fosteringsynergy among civil society, public actors and donors.
The Rural Agenda event concluded on Aug 19, with discussions revolving around access to water, use of #chemicals in #agriculture, insufficient storage options, decline in traditional #cattle breeding, and societal issues such as substance abuse, child labor & #women's safety
Hard line I'd draw if I were Biden: any debt ceiling compromise needs to raise the debt limit to cover the rest of his 1st term. Raising it just through 3/31/24 (as per GOP House bill) and setting up for another fight in the middle of a presidential year would be extremely dumb.
