Watercolor of trees I saw on a walk in the woods for #DrawingAugust.
Looking through the drawings/paintings for the hashtag, most people draw nature. We think nature is beautiful; we love nature; and we are destroying nature. Funny, that.

Nickel mining in Indonesia is destroying forests and marine ecosystems. Nickel is used in batteries and steel, among other things.
There is absolutely nothing "green" about EVs, nothing "critical" about "critical minerals". What is critical is flourishing, intact ecosystems. >>

Give up on hope and instead work your ass off to protect every square inch so there is something rather than nothing after we humans are done and gone.

A 2 hour walk and barely more than 2 minutes without an engine noise of some kind. Today I heard cars, helicopters, small planes and Navy Growlers (insanely loud). Among many other ways we are killing the planet is noise pollution. Sound (and photo) from today.

If the sky has some light in it, then you might get some of the landscape. So if you're up at 4am try then?
I usually photo the full moon in winter on the day after the full moon so the sun is higher in the sky and the contrast is less between moon/sky/landscape.
