Stagnating Lost Lagoon in Stanley Park could be reconnected to ocean
Instead of a growing bloom of algae and worsening water quality — a result, the board says, of a century of infilling — a lagoon reconnected to the sea could see bird-rich mud flats at low tide, and marsh-like conditions at high tide.

One woman's journey exploring her Indigenous roots grows into ambitious teepee-making project
Brenda Mercer was taken from her Standing Buffalo Dakota Nation family as part of the Sixties Scoop. Since then, she's been trying to reconnect with her Indigenous roots. She recently received a grant to build seven teepees in Medicine Hat, Alta.

In recent years, the #ParkerSolarProbe and #SolarOrbiter probes have delivered a wealth of data about our #Sun, its surface—precisely where the #SolarWind originates. The ubiquitous presence of #plasma jets and magnetic field reversals suggests that a significant portion of the wind forms through dynamic processes involving magnetic #reconnection and transient energy releases.

This Thursday, Alexis Rouillard will review recent research on the dynamics of the solar wind: https://www.irap.omp.eu/event/the-tempestuous-origins-of-the-solar-wind-how-parker-and-solar-orbiter-are-probing-our-stars-atmosphere/

I’m exploring ideas for navigating our modern, highly disconnected reality, reducing my tech dependency, and reconnecting with myself, my community, and my environment.
