I keep returning to an idea for a blog series speaking to regular everyday people who do some form of wildlife friendly gardening to create a repository of ideas that others can turn to.

If you do any form of wildlife-friendly gardening (no matter how small) is it something you would be interested in being involved in (photos and text, no video and can be under a pseudonym)?

If you are a person who would like to do wildlife-friendly gardening, is it a resource that would help you?

I took this photo several years ago near Prarie Creek State Park in Northern California. It’s such a “come hither” inviting trail.

Global militaries emit more greenhouse gases than aviation and shipping COMBINED.

War, militarisation and environmental breakdown reinforce each other.

Peace means a just transition to a fossil free future.

For every $1 spent protecting nature, $30 goes to destroying it

This particular sea cave is only safely accessible at low tides, so you have to time the tides right as to get the channel flowing.

"If we truly believed in the #intelligence of the living world, how might we live differently? What would it mean to build, farm and move across the planet with #kinship, not conquest, as our organizing principle? What would a different world – one that works with #nature, and not against it – look like?"

The last frontier of empathy: why we still struggle to see ourselves as animals

Champions of exceptionalism say humans hold a unique moral status. Yet there’s only one species recklessly destroying the planet it needs to survive
