"If any one day could define the hazy transition from slow to rapid decay — 24 hours that truly defined the decline of the American empire from its pedestal as a global superpower — it would have to be March 23."

One crazy day that defined the decline and fall of the American empire

Over 24 hours, a deadly jet crash, militarized airports, insider trading, and a killer heat wave define a nation in rapid decline.

The person with 2 years of food storage and no relationships is less resilient than the person with 2 months of storage and a neighborhood that gives a shit about each other.

"Hard surfaces such as driveways and car parks block water from filtering into the soil.

"By removing the pavement, soils can soak up rainwater, which in turn aids in recharging groundwater supplies."

How moss could help roads cope with heavy rain and reduce air pollution

Already some countries are experimenting with using #moss in built-up areas to absorb air #pollution. As countries search for #nature-based solutions to #climate and #environmental challenges, #roadside moss is starting to attract attention. So could mossy motorway banks work?

Moss could offer environmental benefits over grass, from trapping air pollution to slowing #rainwater runoff during heavy storms.

If you haven’t watched this before, you should. The brilliant Carl Sagan testifying before the United States Congress in 1985 on #ClimateChange.

We should have listened then. Will we now?

"ocean levels are an average of 30cm higher than previously believed, but in some areas of the global south, including south-east Asia and the Indo-Pacific, they may be 100-150cm higher than previously thought"

It has consistently been an underestimation of #climatechange

Global sea levels have been underestimated due to poor modelling, research suggests

Analysis shows average levels are 30cm higher than thought, and up to 150cm in south-east Asia and Indo-Pacific
