For people who are inspired but want to do some small thing themselves, check out the amazing successes of

'regenerative' land projects,

aiding carbon sinking and everything else, from any scale, a back-yard, or entire watershed. There are so many videos on methods, but I selected a Ted Talk by Brad Lancaster; author of "Rainwater Harvesting for Drylands and Beyond". Both links go to the same video.

@sundogplanets, #permaculture,

Shiitake en troncos de eucaliptos (sí, se puede), de los que cortamos para convertir nuestra finca, cansada de este monocultivo para el capital transnacional, en un "bosque de alimentos".

Síganos para más recetas de cómo trampear el colapso ecosocial. ✊🏽💚

Dites, je cherche à commander du matériel pour faire pousser des portes greffes et les rempoter, notamment pour des agrumes. Donc des pots anti chignons, des élastiques, du buddy gap, des étiquettes, des pots plus grand, etc. Je trouve une partie sur triangle outillage et une autre partie sur un autre site, ça ne saoule un peu de faire 2 commandes et deux fois des frais de port.
Vous commandez où le matos de pépiniériste amateur, (j’ai besoin de 40 pas de 500) ?

12 months ago, I realised that I was not living out my own values. As a whānau, we committed to a #nobuyyear2025 where we only bought essentials.

A year ago, I had a 3 year old who was almost impossible to take shopping because she would beg for every random toy and throw a tantrum. This month we asked her what she wanted for her birthday and she said ‘A kiss’ ‘a hug’ ‘a flower’. She received a used bike, goggles, a watch, a real life tea set, a mug and socks. The bike cost us $5 to buy and $30 to repair and is her most prized possession.

Today I asked miss 4 what her friend would want for a birthday gift. My daughter said ‘She’ll like anything, because she’s my friend’. She proceeded to ask if she could give her friend a piece of lettuce from our garden. We redirected her to making a bouquet of lavender and putting aside a ripe strawberry. She’s also going out with her dad to choose a toy from a second hand shop.

Sure, she’s gotten more mature because she’s now 4 and not 3, but I’m so pleased I stopped modelling a consumerism mindset and taught her that a kiss, a hug, a flower, a strawberry, and sometimes a used bike can be the best gifts.

Every potter is a bit of a pyromaniac. As soon as the temperature drops below 60°F, it’s fire season. I have an entire body of work that I only make in the winter because I fire #pottery in my outdoor woodfire kiln. #Permaculture geeks will love this: I built a #RocketKiln with post consumer materials based on the design of the rocket stove. I also use post consumer waste as fuel. I’m excited to share this process with you over the next couple of months.

If you, like me, think our monoculture agriculture is skrewed and are losing hope for the future, well, take a look. It's a really good video about #permaculture and #agroforestry. I loved it!

@Soweitsogut No, but they cant cook without electricity. They cant cool it, they cant even order it without electricity.

And if your smart enough as Farmer you can grow your crops underneath solarpanels. Works great. #Solarpunk #Permaculture
