All-around very cool story and well worth the read. 💛

#Nuns & #NativeWomen from the #indigenous #Shinnecook tribe in #NewYork have started a #kelp #farm to help remove #carbon & #nitrogen / #nitrates #pollution from their #ocean waters.

After two years, there are #scallops, #clams, #SeaHorses, and other #MarineLife not seen in years, sheltering the kelp lines.

It's not just an #environmental success story, but of #friendship, #allyship, & support as well. 💪

I just emailed TDs in Kerry, Galway, Mayo, and Donegal telling them to stand firm against corporate takeover of seaweed harvesting in Ireland, can you do the same?

Carp in the Sunlight in Algae

Today's 3D scene is based on the carp fish. And the underwater thickets where the fish swim. It's bright here. Sunlight penetrates from above. And the fish scales also sparkle with silver and gold. How beautiful it is here. And how interesting it is to watch the underwater world when the sun rises in the morning and sets at sunset. The world is transformed.

Whitefish in a Lake

Today's 3D scene is based on the whitefish. And this is this fish's world. The fish lives here. It swims a lot. It swims to other fish in their little worlds. Each fish here has its own world, where this fish lives. There's a huge lake here. It's simply enormous. And you can swim a lot and peacefully.
