This is a short one: Moving between point A and point B on Thursday we saw these crews pulling belongings out of the bushes along the highway in San Antonio. Pretty sure the City of San Antonio had a pause on sweeps during life-threatening cold. This appeared to be TxDOT and a private contractor.

Просмотров 4514 дней назад
Steven Newcomb (Shawnee/Lenape scholar) and co-founder and co-director of the Indigenous Law Institute presented at the 12th World Wilderness Congress in the summer of 2024 on the legal and religious justifications for the genocidal assault on Native Peoples of the Americas.

Просмотров 928 дней назад
Nature will soon be earning royalties. By bringing the sounds of a variety of species to streaming platforms like Spotify and Apple Music, the Sounds Right music initiative expects to raise $40 million over the next four years and funnel those funds back to creators of that music in the form of wilderness conservation projects. This idea that nature has-or should have-commercial rights is a new...

Is ‘Cool Pavement’ … Cool? Pedestrians & Bicyclists May Not Think So
Просмотров 433 месяца назад
Extreme heat being driven by fossil fuels and deforestation is a global four-alarm fire. Land and sea temperatures continue to break all-time records month after month, year after year. Cities, thanks to the density of heat-trapping cement and asphalt and reduced green space, can be more than 10 degrees hotter than leafier suburban areas. That's a big deal as the planet moves into heat readings...

The Palestinian liberation struggle didn't start or stop on Oct. 7. Yet the events of that day have come to define that struggle in the minds of many thanks to media dispatches that regularly erase the decades of violence suffered by the Palestinian people by Israel's occupation as well as the Palestinian's own long history of resistance as their lands and lives have been chipped away. On Monda...

Просмотров 5014 месяца назад
Deceleration tossed two of our 30-year-old-plus window units this summer and welcomed two mini-split heat pumps in their place. We have marveled at their efficiency, quietude, and healing chill during (another) of our hottest summers ever. We have noticed also, not incidentially, a corresponding drop in our utility bill. (Yes, we still have one of those, in spite of 5.4KW solar system on the ro...

WILD12: 'Who is the crazy one? The person defending the ecosystem or the one justifying ecocide?'
Просмотров 985 месяцев назад
Legal rights for wild nature is increasingly being enshrined in the legal systems around the planet. Federal, state, and local governments-oftentimes led by Indigenous nations-are adopting protections for non-human species at a rapid clip. The momentum is such that some-such as the Republican-dominated Utah State Legislature, where the Great Salt Lake is on the verge of ecological collapse-are ...

Ilarion Merculieff, Unangax̂ (Aleut), was given the name Kuuyux at age four. It translates roughly as “messenger.” And one child per generation has carried it. But Merculieff told audiences last week that he will be the last one with that honor. The Earth crisis has reached such a roil that either all people will collectively raise our consciousness to a new level and come into harmony with Mot...
