@Aurin_the_classtraitor Love this thread! 🌿💚 We’ve been exploring more ways to include edible trees and shrubs in our food forests because
it’s amazing how much they give back, not just to us but to the whole ecosystem. 🌳

What are some of your favourite temperate species for leaf harvest or staple use?

This has implications for agriculture, #Foodsecurity and flow-on to food prices

Every year we say we're going to cut down on eating out....guess how that's going, lol?

Humanitarian crisis in Yemen worsens after WFP halts food shipments http://newsfeed.facilit8.network/TL9LF5 #Yemen #HumanitarianCrisis #WFP #FoodSecurity #Houthis

When adjusted for purchasing power parity (PPP), the article’s framing collapses entirely. In PPP terms, groceries are over 7 times cheaper in China and more than 4 times cheaper in Mexico than in the United States. The illusion of affordability evaporates when the real cost of food is measured not in dollar amounts but in what those dollars can actually buy. A PPP-adjusted food burden analysis reveals that the U.S. and Canada impose the heaviest food burdens on their populations when measured in real consumption power. The article’s framing is thus revealed for what it is: a repackaged apology for a system that extracts more while delivering less.

When the sea moves inland: A global climate wake-up call from #Bangladesh's Delta

As sea levels climb and #weather grows more extreme, coastal regions everywhere are facing a creeping threat: salt. #Salinization of #freshwater and #soils adversely affects 500 million people around the world, especially in low-lying #river #deltas.

The western parts of the delta, already more prone to tidal influence, showed the fastest increases in salinity. The data suggests that the combination of #SeaLevelRise, reduced freshwater flow, and increasingly frequent storm surges are all contributing to the inland movement and retention of saltwater.

Since about 2007, many parts of the delta have experienced stepwise increases in salinity, often linked to powerful storms like #Cyclone #Sidr. These changes can devastate crops, erode #FoodSecurity, and force communities to move. While the analysis focused primarily on environmental data, it underscores how salinity intrusion is increasingly a threat to livelihoods, public #health, and regional stability.
