So why should you care? Well, biochar is like a superfood for soil! Farmers mix it with dirt to help plants grow better, hold more water, and even fight climate change by trapping bad carbon in the ground instead of letting it float up and heat the planet.

OPINION | US President Donald Trump has announced a range of measures that are great for America's oil and gas industry but less great for everyone who doesn't have a Mars exit plan, says Nick Hedley.

LA still ablaze, historic blizzards batter the US south & the worst ever storm hits Ireland as an oligarch-owned President screams “Drill, baby drill” & a corporate-owned PM chants “Growth, Growth, Growth!”
Just the beginning of our civilization’s dystopian final chapter.

Almost no major politician I'm aware of, globally - admits that on current policy, we're on course for 3C or more warming this century.
Nearly all engage in the fantasy and lie, that we are on course to Net Zero by 2050.

80% of the calories that people consume around the globe are annual grains. Once temperatures hit 37C plants can’t transpire and growth stops. Red areas are 40% negative yield. You can only feed 2 billion population at this level. What happens the other 6-8 billion?

Breaking News!
Well humanity, we did it, even if just for one day. Yesterday, Nov. 18, was the first time in recorded history that the global 2m surface temperature breached 2.0°C above the 1850-1900 IPCC baseline.
The long-term average remains below 1.5°C. But not for long.

In 2012, a herd of elephants walked for 12 hours to the house of Lawrence Anthony ( the man who had saved them) following his passing, even though no one alerted them to the event
They stood around the house in an apparent vigil for two days, in quiet contemplation
Exactly a year later, on the anniversary of his passing, the same herd once more made the journey to his house.

IUCN Red List threatened blue marlin killed for sport and a cash prize at the White Marlin Open yesterday.
The global corporations who sponsor this slaughter of rare species include Mercedes-Benz, Under Armour, Miller Lite and Scania Group.
Can you magine the outrage if this was a lion hunt?

There is no way of “cancelling out” human impact on Earth by taking sustainable actions. The only way of balancing out human presence is by doing the obvious: reducing our overall presence on this planet
