Dear Friends of Reality Tomorrow,

- Delay Lama is declared dead and rebored
- Climate deniers moved to oil rigs, open casts, neo-deserts, flood plains etc

Erosion-sculpted alcoves loom in the rose-colored Navajo sandstone walls of Paria Canyon, while shallow, silty water reflects the undulating textures of the canyon floor. The scene is quiet and surreal, shaped by wind, water, and time.

#Sahara

The Sahara is the largest hot desert in the world, equal in size to China or the United States. Yet, this arid expanse was once a verdant, pleasant land, populated by rivers and lakes. The Sahara sustained abundant plant and animal life, such as Nile perch, turtles, crocodiles, and hippos, and attracted prehistoric hunters and herders. What transformed this land of lakes into a sea of sands? When the Sahara Was Green describes the remarkable history of Earth's greatest desert—including why its climate changed, the impact this had on human populations, and how scientists uncovered the evidence for these extraordinary events.
From the Sahara's origins as savanna woodland and grassland to its current arid incarnation, Martin Williams takes us on a vivid journey through time.

Desert pavement (Deserts 🏜️)

A desert pavement, also called reg, serir, gibber, or saï is a desert surface covered with closely packed, interlocking angular or rounded rock fragments of pebble and cobble size. They typically top alluvial fans. Desert varnish collects on the exposed surface rocks over time. Geologists debate the mechanics of pavement formation and their age.

Desert varnish (Deserts 🏜️)

Desert varnish or rock varnish is an orange-yellow to black coating found on exposed rock surfaces in arid environments. Desert varnish is approximately one micrometer thick and exhibits nanometer-scale layering. Rock rust and desert patina are other terms which are also used for the condition, but less often.
