Minarble, in An Unloved English Field Restored to Beautiful Brook as Part of a Large Project to Glorify the River Ise

This needs to happen everywhere, re establishing mangroves and coastal ecosystems in developed areas is also very important.

Knusper, in California Is Free of Extreme Drought Conditions for the First Time in 3 Years

Yesterday, I read an article¹, where it says in the context of this year’s astronomical ocean temperatures:

“The land tends to warm up more than the ocean, but if the ocean is so warm, you essentially start having very high temperatures and dry conditions because the ocean is evaporating and raining on itself,” Dr Bracco said.

As I understand this, normally it would rain near the coast, because that’s where the ocean would heat up the most, under pre-climate-change conditions. And that’s now out of wonk, generally leading to droughts.

Maybe California is for whatever reason in an inversed situation, where their rainfall likeliness is actually improved by the hot oceans…

¹ The article, very much not uplifting: www.abc.net.au/news/2023-08-21/…/102701172

Any stupid idea to avoid curtailing pointless capitalism and greed is hailed as good news.

Linssiili, in A New Study Finds that Performing Acts of Kindness Improves Mental Health Symptoms

This is something I have noticed in myself, when I feel really bad, I feel like helping others. On my way from one particularly bad therapy session, I wished I could help some elderly to carry their groceries, help someone with their bike or anything altruistic.

elbarto777, in Police Officer Jumps Fence to Save Chained Dog from Fire, Not Giving Up Even When Heat Turned Severe
