It is TOO EARLY for local currencies, but THE TIME IS RIPE for _local food Initiatives_

Thought regarding "Treat others as you will that they treat you":

Harming ourselves harms those held onto us, so treat yourself as others wish you to benefit.

Thinking about how smoking tobacco impacts myself and others, too.

BUTTTTT I refuse to initiate works on the Hawai'ian islands. That is criminally ceded native land. I will, however, do what I can to help native Hawai'ians to build up their own co-op

Re: "Fuel (Concept)"

Fossil Fuel, Natural/Greenhouse Gas, Coal — DIRTY Fuel (not energy until consumed).

Sunlight, Water- & Air-flow, Heat Gradients, Biodiesel (recycled from organic wastes) — CLEAN Fuel.

We need to divest from the color-coding of Good v Bad.

Greenwashing and whitewashing, if inverted, become "red washing" and "black washing". Neither of those sounds pleasant to the Western superpsyche bc of racist histories.

If we can lessen color-association with health, we free ourselves from the biases implanted in us that encourage us to pursue false advertising.

The underlying message:

Local, local, local;
Local. Local. Local.
LOCAL! LOCAL! LOCAL!

Lol George Washington was right: premature internationalization is a mistake (though not a fault)

---

I WANT TO START A SCHOOL FOR Farming, Technology, Medicine.

I would really like to work with you to build a chart of our local ecological dependencies:

I.e., upon which other forms of life do the lifeforms in our ecological habitats depend?

By fortifying the bases of the transespecial fuel chain, we secure our environment and assure both nature and ourselves of success and succession.

The 5 Rs:

Reconnect (to others as primary, and to nature — practical and spiritual).
Rethink.
Resist.
Renew.
Rejoice.

Study HEALTHY people, not only the traumatized.

The Siletz Tribe has dedicated two decades to this reintroduction project.

As Michaela noted, a scientist stated that bringing otters back has “cascading effects” on the ecosystem.

This holds true culturally as well: multiple tribes will work together to renew their relationship with the sea otter once it returns.

Global Warming Analysis of Data: Examination the Facts and Implications

jt environmental

Global Warming is a Complex Phenomenon that has scholarship to topic of great concern in Recent Years. With the increasing frequency of extreme Weather Events, Rising Sea Levels, and Melting Polar Ice Caps, It is evident that Our Planet is undergoing significant changes. In Order to Underestand the Causa and Potential Solutions to Global Warming, It is crucial to Analyze The Available Data and Examine The Facts. In this article, We Will Delve Into The Analysis of Data Related to Global Warming, Exploring ITS Implications and What It Means for Our Future.

The Science Behind Global Warming

Global Warming Is Primarily Caused by The Increase Concentration of Greenhouse Gases in the Earth’s Atmosphere. These gases, Such As Carbon Dioxide (CO2), Methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O), Trap Heat from the Sun, leading to a rise in temperature. The main contributor to the increase in Greenhouse gases is Human Activities, Specifically The Burning of Fossil Fuels, Deforestation, and Industrial Process.

Scientists have Been Gathering Data to Understand The Extent of Global Warming and ITS IMPACT ON THE ENVIRONMENT. By Analyzing Temperature Records, Ice Core Samples, and Satellite Observations, They have ouble to establish Clear Pattern of Rising Temperatures Over The Past Century. The Data Clearly Indicates That The Earth’s Climate Is Changing, and Human Activities Are The Driving Force Behind This Change.

Analysis of Temperature Records

One of the Most Significant Pieces of Data Used To Analyze Global Warming is Temperature Records. Scientists Have Been Collecting Temperature Measurements From Various Locations Arund The World For Decades. By Studying The Trends and Patterns in These Records, they are identify long-term changes in temperature.

According to Data from Nasa’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies (Giss), The Average Global Temperature Has Risen By Approximately 1.1 Degrees Celsius Since the Late 19th Century. This May sem like Small increased, but the consequences are Far-Reaching. The Rise in Temperature has led to more frequent heatwaves, drugs, and an increased Risk of Wildfires. It also contributes to the melting of glaciers and polar ice caps, causing is Levels to rise.

The Impact of Melting Polar Ice Caps

The Melting of Polar Ice Caps, Primarily in the Arctic and Antarctica, is a direct result of Global Warming. As The Earth’s Temperature Rises, The Ice Sheets and Glaciers Start to Melt at an accelerat rata. This Leads to a rise in Sea Levels, posting a significant threat to coastal communities and low-lying islands.

According to data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), The Rate of Sea-Level Rise Has Been Increasing The Past Century. IF This Trend Continues, It could result in the dispelgment of millions of People and the loss of valuable ecosystems. Additionionally, The Melting of the Polar Ice Caps Can Disrupt the Delicate Balance of Ocean Currets, Leading to Changes in Weather Patterns and Further Exacerbating The Effects of Global Warming.

Extreme Weather Events and Climate Change

The Analysis of Data Related to Global Warming Also Reveals A Clear Link Between Climate Change and Extreme Weather Events. As The Earth’s Temperature Rises, There is an an an increase in the Intensity and Frequency of Hurricanes, Heatwaves, and Heavy Rainfall Events. These extreme weather Events can cause significant Damage to infrastructure, agriculture, and human Health.

According to a Study Published in the Journal Nature, There have been a Notable Increase in the Number of Category 4 and 5 Hurricanes Globally. This Trend can be attributed to the Warming of the Oceans, which provides The Energy Needed for Hurricanes to Form and Strengthen. Furthermore, The Analysis of Data from the intergovenmental panel on climate change (IPCC) shows that extreme rainfall Events have scholars

The Implications of Global Warming

The Analysis of Data Related to Global Warming You have significant implications for our planet and future generations. It is crucial that we take immediate action to mitigate The Effects of Global Warming and reduces Our Carbon Footprint. Failure to do so could lead to irreversible Damage to our Environment and a crowd of social, economic, and health-related consequences.

by Transitioning to Clean and Renewable Sources of Energy, Such as Solar and Wind Power, We Can Reduces Our Dependence on Fossil Fuels and Signanantly decreases Greenhouse Gas Emissions. ADDITIONALLY, REFORESTATION EFFORTS AND SUTITABLE LAND MANAGEMENT CAN HELP ABSORBBON DIEXIDE FROM THE ATMOSPHERE AND MITIGATE THE EFECTS OF GLOBAL WARMG.

The Role of Policy and International Cooperation

Addressing Global Warming Requires Coordinated Effort at The International Level. Governments and Policymakers Need to Implement Effective Policies and Regulations to Promote Clean Energy, reduces emissions, and vulnerable commune protects. The Paris Agreement, SIGNED by Nearly 200 Countries, Aims to Limit Global Temperature Rise To Well Below 2 Degrees Celsius ABOVE PRE-INUSTRIAL LEVELS.

However, The Success of First Initiatives RELITIES ON THE COOPERATION AND COMMITMENT OF ALL NATIONS. It is essential for country to work together to develop innovative solutions, Share Best practices, and support developing nations in their efforts to adapt to the impacts of Global Warming.

CONCLUSION

The Analysis of Data Related to Global Warming Provides Undeniable Evidence of the reality and severity of This Issue. Rising Temperatures, Meting Polar Ice Caps, and Extreme Weather Events All Point To The Urgent Need for Action. By understunding the implications of Global Warming and implementing effective strategies, we can mitigate its effects and build to substantable future for generations to eat.

Beautiful handmade smudging sticks from Ecuador. My Taita's neighbour crafted these gorgeous tools. Each bundle is made with specific plants chosen for their unique properties and energetic resonance. There is not better way to hold an intention than using a cleansing smoke that speaks a language older than words.

(2 of 2) "The second peace is that which is made between two individuals, and the third is that which is made between two nations. But above all you should understand that there can never be peace between nations until there is first known that true peace which, as I have often said, is within the souls of men."

Though Johnson initially despised farming, he now embraces it as a practice passed down for some 2000 years. Proudly referring to himself as a 250th-generation Hopi farmer, Johnson's agricultural life is a testament to indigenous wisdom and resilience. #Heritage #IndigenousWisdom

I just want to say that Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmer is the most beautiful and amazing #book I've read in a long time. The poetry, the philosophy, the raw emotion of it really spoke to me. It drove home again and again the simple message that we have been squandering our gifts as humans in this capitalistic hell-system. The indigenous wisdom of using them to engage in reciprocity with our environment as a responsibility in a culture of gratitude has been thrown aside, but it's not gone.

[Short film] #Ákhuin

Radio-JusSunná / Sunná Nousuniemi (#Sámi) & Guhtur Niillas Rita Duomis / Tuomas Kumpulainen with Ááná Jyyrki Sáárá-Máárjá / Saara-Maria Salonen

"With the singular Sámi oral storytelling tradition of joik at its center, ÁHKUIN is a visual and musical call-and-response between a grandmother and her descendants. Archival interviews and the joik of Maarit-áhkku (dir. Sunná Máret Nousuniemi’s grandmother) unspool as a connective thread across time, inviting the viewer through a portal into this corner of Sápmi. Here, the rhythms of time are set by the daily tasks that assured the survival of those who came before; seemingly mundane chores — carrying water from the river, setting up the sauna, boiling reindeer bone marrow — offer up gifts of memory, music, and Indigenous knowledge.

"As in Indigenous communities the world over, colonization has profoundly shaped recent Sámi history through stories of loss. Drawing aesthetic inspiration from sources as diverse as duodji (Sámi handicrafts and land-based knowledge systems), the work of David Lynch, Pauliina Peodoroff’s Matriarkaatti (Matriarchy), and the environmentally focused, community-based art of Niillas Holmberg, Jenni Laiti and Outi Pieski, ÁHKUIN presents a melancholy yet playful Sámi story with lessons for a new era defined by giving and receiving."

[Short film]: ARMEA

Letila Mitchell (#Rotuman) with Rotuman Women’s Weaving Collective & Iane Tavo (Rotuman)

“If you listen to nature, it will lead the way…” Elder Gagaj Taimanav

"Steeped in symbolism and no larger than a child’s hand, the diminutive bird known as the Armea is found in only one place on Earth: the Pacific island of Rotuma.

"After scores of performances around the world and years away from Rotuma, ARMEA opens as the dedicated dancers and musicians of Rako Pasefika make their long awaited return home to the island. Arriving by air yet received just as their seafaring predecessors were, the Rako team engages with creative elders in the hopes of revitalizing ancient stories that are in danger of being forgotten. As Rako prepares to perform a new production inspired by the totemic Armea, their relationships with elders, knowledge keepers, healers, artisans and cultural custodians reveal deep and reciprocal connections to this ancient land and to the immense ocean from which it rises. Both an offering to those who have guided the way — such as the hån lep he rua sacred women — and a promise to sustain sacred artforms for generations to come, ARMEA is an ode to all that is small yet sacred."

[Short film] #Enchukunoto (The Return)

Laissa Malih with John Ole Tingoi (#Maasai)

"As the first female Maasai filmmaker, Laissa Malih initially set out to document the land-based practices of her forefathers and ways in which climate change is reshaping Maasai communities. In returning to the IL-Laikipiak Maasai village that her parents left when she was a child, Malih experiences an epiphany: her own life is a reflection of the myriad challenges between Maasai youth and elders, women and men, ancestral ways of passing down essential knowledge and modern methods of education.

"In ENCHUKUNOTO (The Return), Malih’s singular perspective also challenges ways in which the Maasai peoples have long been seen and documented by tourists and other outsiders. 'Many tourists come to our Maa lands to film the lions, the gazelles,' she observes. 'The camera takes and takes. I wonder what my camera can give my people in return?'

"Interweaving verite with Malih’s insights, Malih offers a heretofore unseen perspective as an insider and an outsider, a woman among men, a filmmaker carrying on sacred Maasai traditions of storytelling in an era defined by uncertainty."

[Short film] #Tahnaanooku'

Justin Deegan (Arikara, Oglala, and Hunkpapa) with Jennifer Martel (Cheyenne)

"A grandmother. A source of existence. A portal to other worlds. For thousands of years, the Indigenous Peoples of what is now known as North and South Dakota co-existed reciprocally with the Missouri River, its waters offering life while also inspiring legends and languages. In Tahnaanooku’, filmmaker Justin Deegan takes an experimental approach to the severing of this relationship between his community — the Mandan, Hidatsa, and Arikara — and the river, the result of over 80 years of US government efforts to control the Missouri, including via the Garrison Dam.

"Seen through the eyes of Deegan’s mother, Darline, Tahnaanooku’ intertwines past, present, and future, land and language, dreams and reality. The staunching of the Missouri contrasts with a fluid streak of horses, the diminished river currents interweave with the light of the aurora borealis. In dreams, Darline — a designer, activist, mother, and grandmother — receives messages from the original Mother, Earth itself. Meanwhile, the stark visual backdrop of the Garrison Dam offers an immovable reminder of the ruinous history of the Pick-Sloan Plan, deemed by legendary historian Vine Deloria Jr. (Standing Rock Sioux) to be 'the single most destructive act ever perpetrated on any tribe by the United States.'

"Glimpsed in ceremony, Darline (one of the last speakers of the critically endangered ancient Arikara language) offers care to a fellow grandmother and shares hope for the generations to come."
