During the strong #sunshine we #UgandaEcoYouthsNetwork found a smart #ecoFriendly way to keep water in our crops by using dried materials cut from our #banana plantations to cover the soil around our #eggplants this simple #climateSmart method helps the soil stay cool and moist even in dry weather and protects our food from drying out it's how we fight #hiddenHunger through #sustainableFarming and local innovation we never give up because #youthInAg can #stopHunger and build a resilient future.

Ever heard of a windcatcher? Long before modern tech, ancient civilizations cooled their homes using tall towers and pure wind power.

No fans, no electricity—just design brilliance. We’re only now realizing how smart they were.

Bluesky post by Margaret Morgan

Like many major cities in the Netherlands, Rotterdam's infrastructure is being transformed to be more environmentally sustainable, catering to pedestrians, mass transit & bicyclists, and limiting car traffic through the city.

So this major intersection, Hofplein, is now being changed from this...

...to this.

Hundreds of new trees, underground rainwater storage, open spaces to walk and sit, and far fewer cars!

Very exciting ☺️

Africa: How Climate Smart Is Solar in Meeting Africa's Power Needs?: [The New Humanitarian] Lusaka -- "In many of the rural areas, there is no grid connection because the infrastructure is not developed, and the cost of that infrastructure is truly enormous." http://newsfeed.facilit8.network/THmHwZ #SolarEnergy #Africa #ClimateSmart #RenewableEnergy #EnergyAccess

I submitted our last Clean Energy Communities Grant application yesterday. This one was for an enegy audit and $412,500 in energy efficiency upgrades to our 1930's County Office building. If this one flys, we will have recieved over $1,000,000 to be used for GHG reducing projects.

Holistic framework approach includes kanaka 'oiwi (Native Hawaiian) scholars to achieve meaningful climate benefits built on place-based equity. Soil modeling Hawai`i is under-developed => new nested modeling approach. Soil health is beyond carbon modeling => new soil health index accounts for ag history and soil mineralogy.

California Sues Big Oil 🧵 /4

When the world looks back to Humankind's transition to a #ClimateSmart world, the #CaliforniaLawsuit will be one of those ticks on the timeline. I'm not sure its significance can be overstated. One more nail-in-the coffin of a still ravenously profiting #BigOil.
