ok so people are making fun of this but adding this with other anti-global warming tactics will work
This isn’t adding ice just for the sake of denial, it’s adding to the Earth’s albedo. This in turn actually makes the Earth’s climate cooler, and then more ice will be produced naturally because of this.
It isn’t a process we need to continue forever, in fact it’s one that needs to be calculated so that we don’t do it TOO MUCH. The only worry would be cooling down too much.
So yes, this is a good idea. It simply isn’t the only thing we should do because we still have gross pollution.
For the love of god do it . anything just do it. Give us hope.
Here’s the thing: Most environmental catastrophes humans have ever or are currently creating can be fixed. It’s not just a matter of “oh no, things are ruined, and maybe we can stop the degradation so that things don’t get any worse, but we’re stuck with how things are.” There are some things we can’t do, like bringing back extinct species. But there are a lot of other things we can definitely do, many of which are being done right now. The problem is that most of our willpower and effort is spent on bullshit tiny things that won’t solve the problem (individual recycling, etc.) and not on the large-scale things that can and will make a large-scale difference.
Ice caps are melting? Guess what! We know how to make ice. It’s not that hard. Designing mostly-automated robot ships to go to the poles and rebuild the ice caps is well within our current technical capabilities. We just need to fund it.
Deforestation on a massive scale? Destruction of other biomes? Guess what! We know how to plant trees. We know how to plant grasslands. We know how to take barren, lifeless land and turn it back into a viable biome. It’s not that hard. In a lot of cases, if there’s neighboring areas where that biome still exists, all you have to do is dump a few tons of biomass (plant clippings, food waste, etc.) on the barren land and stand back and wait. The biomass will provide nutrients and keep the topsoil from blowing away, and the plants and animals from the neighboring biome will move in. In two decades, even if you don’t do anything besides dumping the biomass on it, you won’t be able to tell what was the barren area and what was the still-existing biome.
Coral reefs dying? Now, coral reefs are a bit more fragile than most biomes, but guess what! We still know how to replant/rebuild them, and in fact are working on that in places affected by coral reef die-off! And we’re learning how to do it better every day.
Desertification? Guess what! We know how to turn desert back into green space. They’re doing it on a large scale in China and sub-Saharan Africa. There are several different techniques, none of which are even very technology-intensive. It takes money and time and labor, but it’s perfectly doable. We know this because we’ve done it.
Plastic in the ecosystem, particularly in the ocean? Guess what! There’s a lot of people working on this, both on “how to remove plastic from the ocean” and “how to reuse/recycle it more efficiently.” And the techniques are improving by leaps and bounds every year. This is a solvable problem. These are all solvable problems.
So if you’re crushed by the weight of the coming environmental catastrophe … don’t be. These are all solvable problems! We can stop things from getting worse, and we can fix the things we’ve broken. The issue is political, not practical.
On the political side, of course, is the need to tighten up environmental regulations across the globe. (What’s the statistic, that 90% of pollution is caused by 100 corporations?) And then of course, we need to fund these programs on a large enough scale.
In some ways the political aspect is the hardest, but consider this: we are at a tipping point. Things are changing about the way politicians talk about climate change and ecological degradation. More ordinary people are concerned about this, which means more pressure on politicians. One of the ways that things are changing is that people–even conservatives–are starting to talk about “job opportunities in new green fields” and switching the conversation so that it’s not “rainforest vs. jobs” makes political action a lot more possible. And no, it’s not going to happen on its own, but it can happen.
This is a solvable problem.
the spring is here and I’m so proud of Her! Hi! I missed you m’lady! (first one are some grains that were orginaly for birds and sprouted so nicely!) Some tulips and daffodils and snowdrops!
I was literally crying for my meadow and Tami figured out solution for me that made me laugh but also THIS IS BRILIANT so I need to share
I’m going to buy seeds of meadow flowers and plant them RANDOMLY on public lawns and around people lawns, even private possesions if they dont cut the grass and dont care for the place.
Imagine you have some abbondend lawn and sudenly this year it blooms with flwers
I will feel like real Ghibli character, like freaking Totoro. I will go at evenings with my dog, and RANDOMLY DROPS SEEDS AT YOUR PLACE
And I want to share because maybe someone will start it too.
Don’t think about it as waste of money, you don’t need those flowers to grown at your place only, its not about sharing it with others and doing ‘others jobs’ because I dont fkin care about those people it doesnt matter where those flowers will grow as long as they grow and feed bees and change the world
it’s good to feel a little spring in the middle of winter
How Did Victorian Ladies Stay Warm in Winter? || THE EXPERIMENT
I’m so pleased with my spring decor (I will allways buy mashrooms when I will find them) also some herbs: basil, parsley and chive, because I miss spouts and greeness of gardens. Tried to avoid plastic and really cheap decoration, birds are wooden :D
Again my statements are not for the disabled people that can’t have it the other way and just living they lives and doing their best
but if your idea of cottagecore is
surrounding yourself with fake flowers (you can get real or real dried! -not great for allergy, they are really dusty)
plastic plants in general (got a real one pleeaseee)
buying fast fashion and acrylic sweaters just because (second hand shops are your friend! I own two beautiful pure wool skirts for few zloty, learn how to sew, knit, repair you clothes)
going for The Aesthetic without any reflex
doing it with the idea that it’s only cute decor, that you can change next year for new Fashionable thing and throw away the stuff you’ve got (just please DON'T)
and you are not sleepless about Earth condition, you are not trying to live your best sustainable live, then rethink what are you doing pretty please
Idk who needs to hear it, but you should take care of your stuff as if it was super expensive because IT SHOULD BE expensive. I don’t care that you can throw away a pair of socks and got a new one. MEND THOSE AS IF IT WAS HANDCRAFTED take care of it, take care of your planet. Fast fashion will destroy us.
I start noticing that those ‘No waste, Natural living, Slow living” Channels on YT are hypocritical as hell xD They tell you to eat from your garden and how they stopped buying So Many Things years ago, and then will boil quinoa or cut avocado that were produce far away from their home country - so it has to be transported, destroying environment and probably harvested by some workers living shitty life (I don’t want to write about salvery or even child salvery if I’m not sure)
if something is produced only in a few parts of the world HOW MUCH THOSE PLACES HAS TO BE OVERUSED TO FEED ENTIRE WORLD I'M ASKING YOU.
I understand love for those. I’m addicted to avocado unfortunately. But I would never promo those in “Slow Sustainable Living” kind of video. Plant based, sure. I’m happy you don’t eat animals but you are not better than me djkfhfdgdf
Hey, hey you. Hey yes you
don’t buy plastic clothes if you can
Hey, hey you, yes, you.
Next time you will be shoping get yourself a brew basket. Tea bags are full of plastic, they are not worth your money.
already stabed myself with needle but yea
