I'm cynical but passionate and optimistic about the future. I'm into landscape fauna ecology especially in the arid and semi arid zones. 😁 PS not a huge fan of cat and puppy photos.

Fire events like these, and the harm they cause to people, communities, and nature, will only become more likely and more diabolical as long as our governments keep supporting the fossil fuel industry.

This headline is blatant misinformation. One guy quit because of Adler’s “anti-Zionist” program and zero people noticed or cared. The Board then acted against Adler and Randa, the whole festival collapsed and 4 board members quit rather than fix the mess they made. This upheaval is solely theirs.

This is just utterly insane. It is demented. It is the lowest common denominator. It is typical of anthropocentric "solutions". It attempts to resolve one problem by creating another, when all it needs is the swift and concerted move away from #fossilfuels.

It's time progressives leave the conservatives behind. No ALP, LNP, PHONE, etc. They're the source of hatred & division. They're exclusive & intolerant. They deal in intellectually bereft ideologies. They're the face of #antisemitism, #islamophobia, #racism, #fascism, #nazism, #zionism, #islamists.

I begin work next week and was thinking of lunches. I'm not a fan of junk food, so I thought I would make myself some Caponata. It's difficult dish to explain to non-Italians, but believe me it is delicious and so very colourful. I would recommend looking up 1 of the million variations of this dish.
