Exploring the new #fungi identified in 2025 https://fems-microbiology.org/femsmicroblog-exploring-the-new-fungi-identified-in-2025/ by Dr. Sarah Wettstadt

"From ant-manipulating fungi in Brazil to #RustFungi in Pakistan, and fungi from the #plastisphere in South Korea, 2025 revealed how diverse fungi are, and which ecological roles they play. Also, bamboo-dwelling species with unique morphologies caught our eye, highlighting the beauty of nature."

Ach, Bewässerung an dem Standort weg lassen.
Brandgefahr eindämmen mit #NurWasser voll o.k.

Solche Standorte sind was für die Spezialisten unter den Geschöpfen.
Ob es für die Infrastruktur zum Schluss gut ist - dahingestellt.
Besser über Folgendes nachdenken: Kippen, Kaugummi und Müll darf da nicht hin ----> an die gerichtet, die es fallen lassen.

Zuerst werden wir in Zukunft immer mehr #Lebensprozesse heilen/wiederherstellen müssen, statt sich immer mehr und weiter auf #Technikprozesse (Kriege eingeschlossen) zu versteifen, die durch #Reifenabrieb, #Bremsenabrieb, #Plasticpollution und andere #Mikroplastik, (Kunststofftextilfusseln eingeschlossen), .... auch Produktionsverfahren der Land- bzw. Nahrungsgüterwirtschaft, krankmachend/tötend auf Ersteres wirken. Beschränkung auf nötigste/minimale #Technikprozesse? https://c.im/@cdarwin/111313428389089296

Podcast recommendation
If you want to learn more about the plastic crisis I can highly recommend the Plastisphere Podcast by Anja Krieger. It has been a very important source for my research in the last years.

Der letzte Eimer Schnipsel - mir fällt das UV-bröselige Zeug nicht mehrin den Nacken und auf den Boden/ in die Erde.

"As a densely populated micro-ecosystem, the #plastisphere is made up of primary producers, predators, symbionts, and decomposers. #Diatoms are considered to be one of the earliest colonizers of plastic surfaces. Over time, as the community matures, they are replaced by other eukaryotes, such as heterotrophic #dinoflagellates."

The increasing plastic waste in our oceans doesn't just introduce surable plastics but also attached microbes into the marine sediments.
