Yosemite National Park (U.S. National Park Service)
Not just a great valley, but a shrine to human foresight, the strength of granite, the power of glaciers, the persistence of life, and the tranquility of the High Sierra.<br /><br />First protected in 1864, Yosemite National Park is best known for its waterfalls, but within its nearly 1,200 square miles, you can find deep valleys, grand meadows, ancient giant sequoias, a vast wilderness area, and much more.

Solidarity with anti-colonial movements is critically important and we need it back.
A shift to nutritious plant-based diets in high-income nations alone would reduce less-necessary production and land use, cutting dietary emissions by 61% and sequestering 98.3 Gt CO2eq, equal to 14 years of current global agricultural emissions. https://www.nature.com/articles/s43016-021-00431-5
Dietary change in high-income nations alone can lead to substantial double climate dividend | Nature Food
A dietary shift from animal-based foods to plant-based foods in high-income nations could reduce greenhouse gas emissions from direct agricultural production and increase carbon sequestration if resulting spared land was restored to its antecedent natural vegetation. We estimate this double effect by simulating the adoption of the EAT–Lancet planetary health diet by 54 high-income nations representing 68% of global gross domestic product and 17% of population. Our results show that such dietary change could reduce annual agricultural production emissions of high-income nations’ diets by 61% while sequestering as much as 98.3 (55.6–143.7) GtCO2 equivalent, equal to approximately 14 years of current global agricultural emissions until natural vegetation matures. This amount could potentially fulfil high-income nations’ future sum of carbon dioxide removal (CDR) obligations under the principle of equal per capita CDR responsibilities. Linking land, food, climate and public health policy will be vital to harnessing the opportunities of a double climate dividend. The exact contribution of alternative diets to climate change mitigation depends on several factors, including where these diets are adopted. This study quantifies avoided greenhouse gas emissions that would result from a shift to EAT–Lancet diets in 54 high-income countries through agricultural production and the restoration of natural vegetation in saved lands.

My camera shoots fascistsThe #ContainerWall is almost gone. As of the end of work yesterday, January 27th, there were about four dozen container stacks left to go. The crew starts work before dawn and ends about 2-3pm. Oddly, yesterday the dismantling crew left at 10am, so I didn't get many pictures of that part of the work.
This is the view from near Coronado Peak just at dawn.
It's hard to tell when they'll be done, but for sure sometime this coming week. Good riddance.
Thoroughly enjoyed this article https://www.nytimes.com/2023/01/26/movies/women-hollywood-optimism.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare
Kenn WhiteToday I learned from @0xabad1dea that a lot of large solar farm owners use sheep herds to maintain their grass and they're called solarpunk grazers and life seems a little better. 🤘
