Climate Change? Shlimate Change!

It's time for humans to move cities, towns and transportation underground:

Building underground offers several advantages, including:

1 Energy Efficiency: Underground homes have excellent thermal and insulative properties, making them energy-efficient in any climate
The surrounding soil acts as a natural insulator, helping to regulate temperature and reduce the need for heating or cooling systems.

2 Environmental Benefits: Underground housing is environmentally friendly, as it minimizes the visual impact on the landscape and reduces the need for land clearing. It can also contribute to energy conservation and sustainability efforts.

3 Protection from Severe Weather: Underground buildings are more resilient and can withstand severe weather conditions, such as storms and extreme temperatures. The surrounding soil provides natural protection and insulation.

4 Noise Reduction: Underground homes offer a quieter living environment due to the sound-absorbing properties of the surrounding soil. This can be especially beneficial for those seeking a peaceful and tranquil living space.

5 Effective Use of Urban Space: Underground development allows for the efficient use of available urban space. It provides opportunities to maximize land utilization without encroaching on the surface area.

Here are some recordings I've made over the years (from the 1980s to present). https://soundcloud.com/adamsweetonline

You probably see a theme. Yes, I play mostly "traditional" music, folk and Americana

the opposite of #loneliness is #contentment 🙂
Here are some things I've learned in my years:
1. practice contentment as a skill by focusing on what you already have in your life instead of seeking to add more things
2. accept the present moment and let go of cravings for what you can't have
3. differentiate between happiness and contentment, as they are not the same thing
4. focus on personal growth, cultivate gratitude, and build strong relationships

In twilight's embrace,
Glowing secrets bloom softly,
Nature's luminescence.
