In 2019, in Utrecht, the Netherlands, the city embarked on a project to add green roofs to 316 bus stops. They planted sedum, a hearty succulent, to attract pollinators.

4/ Indigenous wisdom teaches that Wetiko is curable, but only through deep self-awareness. The antidote is compassion, interconnectedness, and breaking free from systems that feed greed, fear, and the urge to dominate. Awareness disrupts its spread. /5

Great news from Malaysia — the Sarawak government announced they would stop issuing provisional leases for new oil palm plantations. This is a consequential decision for biodiversity, climate, and Indigenous peoples’ rights.

See HRW's influential work:
EU: Address Indigenous Rights Violations in Malaysian Imports
The European Union should classify Malaysia’s state of Sarawak as high risk under its new anti-deforestation regulation.

Btw, some land snails also have opercula. This is not a land snail thread but I’m a land snail person, so here they are. I do want to talk about operculate land snails at some point because they’re fascinating. (8/8)

Compassion and empathy for another human life. Wow! That is awesome.
Bernie Sanders paused the Fight Oligarchy rally in Greeley, Colorado, so medics could assist an onlooker who had fainted.

The stadium fell silent, then erupted in cheers as the person rose to their feet.

It was a moment that exemplified his compassion—a quality few other politicians possess.

Veganism creates broad compassion for life in general, and thus involves a celebratory mind-set. Raising awareness around this requires a huge cultural change though, so be as patient as possible with others who don't display the same level of awareness around this subject - all learning together!

The birdsong and the breeze.

Nature’s calm amidst the chaos is a reminder we can all pause and be in the present moment. It doesn’t change what’s going on around us, but it allows us to recharge and find a calmer mind. Our threat-brain is real, but so, too, is our ability to be resilient. 😊
