Book collection is sometimes so toxic for the environment
No listen to me
I am part of a manga collectors group. They buy second hand books but also preorder the new once’s.
BUT! If those book only have the slightest damage:
Tumblr media
They already send it back. And order a new one. Hence the book gets thrown away
I hate it so much! Books are still a think to be touched, to be handled, if you can not stand a little damage like this… don’t collect books and stop polluting the environment

CocoCare: Harnessing Husks for a Greener Tomorrow
The objective of this research is to address the pollution issue in our hometown and minimize its impact on future generations. Our group, consisting of Beyonce Balili, Robinson Galon, Jannah Hinay, Louella Magabang, Cutee Sophia Patriarca, Rob Daniel Pulmones, and Faye Xyra Solivio, aims to utilize available resources and innovation to save Mother Nature.
Researching and determining viable remedies for pollution is our present goal. According to our research, there are a number of ways to reduce air pollution, including conserving energy, taking public transportation, maintaining your car properly, choosing environmentally friendly items, and avoiding long car trips. Cleaner commutes, avoiding excessive idling, and postponing gasoline-powered activities can all be beneficial on days with high ozone or particle levels.
We are committed to addressing these environmental issues and reducing their influence on coming generations by utilizing the resources at our disposal as well as creative thinking.

Coconut Husks
Reusing coconut shells for crafts, briquettes, and horticultural items are just a few of the many possible uses. items that can be created from coconut fibers (coir) include coir mats, erosion control items, coir pots and planters, coir doormats and floor coverings, coir-based biofilters, and coir rope and twine. The group decided on a particle board made of coconut husk because the material could potentially be commercially viable, especially in the furniture, design, and infrastructure industries. It is also relevant to a number of different student projects. All labor, raw material transportation, adhesive compounds, and other production-related expenses are included in the production costs. Crucially, since the raw materials are garbage that is easily gathered, we can ensure a cost-effective final product and charge less for the particle board than that of competing products. Each member of my group has been interviewed by a total of eight persons. We made the decision to survey individuals who frequently use coconuts for their businesses or who use them to make coconut juice to sate their cravings. I have conducted interviews with four students, two customers, parents, and one merchant of coconut juice. As stated in the privacy permission, the respondents' personal information was kept private. First, we inquired as to where they had disposed of their coconut waste and if they were aware of the potential environmental harm that their disposal strategy may have caused. Inquiring about potential methods to mitigate the adverse consequences of inappropriate disposal of coconut waste should enable us to make a contribution and tackle the issue.
This experience has been thrilling because it has given me the chance to ensure that people have a decent atmosphere and a marketable product that will help us thrive economically. Innovativeness is a skill that can be learned and cultivated. It is a course that teaches people how to adjust well to various circumstances. Working with my friends, who are also my group members, helped me succeed more because they were a great support system when I faced obstacles. Furthermore, trust is developed throughout the course of working together toward a common objective—helping people while conducting business.

CA Redwoods to Be First National Park Co-Managed with a Native American Tribe That Used to Own it https://www.goodnewsnetwork.org/ca-redwoods-to-be-the-first-national-park-co-managed-with-a-native-american-tribe-that-used-to-own-it/
questionable headline aside this is good news
The Yurok will be the first Tribal nation to co-manage land with the National Park Service under a historic memorandum of understanding signed on Tuesday by the tribe, Redwood national and state parks, and the non-profit Save the Redwoods League, according to news reports.
The Yurok tribe has seen a wave of successes in recent years, successfully campaigning for the removal of a series of dams on the Klamath River, where salmon once ran up to their territory, and with the signing of a new memorandum of understanding, the Yurok are set to reclaim more of what was theirs.

Of Tiny Tots, Mistaken Identities, and Reunions
Seventeen year old Damian Wayne is dragged to a business deal outside of Gotham (along with his father and Drake), mostly to keep up appearances that the family does work outside of Gotham, networking, and because Damian does need to learn the ropes of the company, he decides to head outside the meeting with the Manson family to get a breather (mainly cause the Manson's were annoying him fully, it was like they were trying to suck up towards Damian and trying to push their daughter on him but at the same time he caught them almost insulting and hostile towards him before they would stop and correct themselves) when out of the blue a three year old toddler with black hair comes running over with a cheerful "Daddy!" and latches onto his leg.
Damian is stunned in place but feels frozen when he hears a voice, older and almost identical to his own but he can detect a familiarity in it, a voice he only hears in his dreams nowadays say.
"Ellie, no! That's not me Starlight! I'm so sorry dude-"
When Damian turned his head towards the voice he's meet with an near identical face, granted there were some minor differences, but very, very familiar pair of striking blue eyes staring at him. Eyes that were somehow full of life, which shouldn't be possible because the last time he saw those eyes they had been dim and milked over years ago. The speaker had become startled at the his sudden turn and the words that he had been saying had quickly died out when he too took in Damian's features.
"D...Damian?..." the name came out so soft and small that Damian almost didn't hear it but he did.
And before Damian could stop himself, he spoke a name he hadn't dared utter in years.
"Danyal."
His twin looked like he had just seen a ghost, and Damian was sure he looked the same. And given the last time they had last saw each other it was no wonder they both looked like death warmed over them for a moment.
After all... Damian had failed to protect his brother, Danyal al Ghul all those years ago on a botched mission.
His bother who... wasn't dead.
His brother who was looking like he wanted to run but was keeping himself rooted in his spot.
His brother whose eyes were glancing downwards and seemed so nervous.
His brother who knew the little girl, Ellie, still hugging his legs.
His brother who had... responded and corrected her mix up when she had called Damian 'Daddy.'
And oh, she's looking up at him and making grabby hands wanting to be picked up and she has Danyal's eyes and his nose and-
Oh... Damian.... Damian's an uncle it seems.

How people in the USA loved nature and knew the ways of the plants in the past vs. nowadays
I have been in the stacks at the library, reading a lot of magazine and journal articles, selecting those that are from over fifty years ago.
I do this because I want to see how people thought and the tools they had to come up with their ideas, and see if I can get perspective on the thoughts and ideas of nowadays
I've been looking at the journals and magazines about nature, gardening, plants, and wildlife, focusing on those from 1950-1970 or thereabouts. These are some unstructured observations.
The discourse about spraying poisons on everything in your garden/lawn has been virtually unchanged for the past 70 years; the main thing that's changed is the specific chemicals used, which in the past were chemicals now known to be horribly dangerous and toxic. In many cases, just as today, the people who opposed the poisons were considered as whackos overreacting to something mostly safe with a few risks that could be easily minimized. In short, history is not on the pesticides' side.
Compared with 50-70 years ago, today the "wilderness" areas of the USA are doing much better nowadays, but it actually appears that the areas with lots of human habitation are doing much worse nowadays.
I am especially stricken by references to wildflowers. There has definitely been a MASSIVE disappearance of flowers in the Eastern United States. I can tell this because of what flowers the old magazines reference as common or familiar wildflowers. Many of them are flowers that seem rare to me, which I have only seen in designated preserves.
There are a lot more lepidopterans (butterflies and moths) presumed to be familiar to the reader. And birds.
Yes, land ownership in the USA originated with colonization, but it appears that the preoccupation with who owns every little piece of land on a very nitpicking level has emerged more recently? In the magazines there is a sense of natural places as an unacknowledged commons. It is assumed that a person has access to "The creek," "The woods," "The field," "The pond" for simple rambling or enjoyment without personally owning property or directly asking permission to go onto another person's property.
There is very little talk of hiking and backpacking. I don't think I saw anything in the magazines about hiking or going on hikes, which is strange because nowadays hiking is the main outdoor activity people think of. Nature lovers 50-70 years ago described many more activities that were not very physically active, simply watching the birds or tending to one's garden or going on a nice walk. I feel this HAS to do with the immediately above point.
Gardening seems like it was more common, like in general. The discussion is about gardening without poisons or unsustainable practices, instead of trying to convince people to garden at all.
Overall, the range of animals and plants culturally considered to be common or familiar "backyard" creatures has narrowed significantly, even as the overall conservation status of animals and plants has improved.
This, to me, suggests two things that each may be possible: first, that the soils and environments of our suburbs and houses have sustained such a high level of cumulative damage that the life forms they once supported are no longer able to live, or second, that our way of managing our yards and inhabited areas has become steadily more destructive. Perhaps it may be the case that the minimum "acceptable" standard of lawn management has become more fastidious.
In conclusion, I feel that our relationship with nature has become more distant, even as the number of people who abstractly support the preservation of "wilderness" has increased. In the past, these wilderness preservation initiatives were a harder sell, but somehow, more people were in more direct contact with the more mundane parts of nature like flowers and birds, and had a personal relationship with those things.
And somehow, even with all the DDT and arsenic, the everyday outdoor spaces surrounding people's homes were not as broadly hostile to life even though the people might have FELT more hostile towards life. In 1960, a person hates woodpeckers, snakes and moths and his yard is constantly plagued by them: in 2024, a person enjoys the concept of woodpeckers, snakes and moths but rarely sees them, and is more likely to think of parks and preserves as the place they live and need to be protected. Large animals are mostly doing better in 2024, but the littlest ones, the wildflowers and bugs and birds, have declined steeply. It's not because "wilderness" is less; it seems more because non-wilderness has declined in quality.

(May 12, 2023) We are raising money for a crowd funded research project investigating the cause of blueberry hermit crabs in Okinawa, Japan using trash found on the beach as “homes” instead of natural shells. These hermit crabs are endemic to the southern islands of Japan, and they act as coastal environmental engineers. They are endangered on several islands, and we want to try and understand why they are resorting to beach trash for shells. Please consider sharing this post and donating to the project. The fundraising will be active for the next 45 days (until June 26). 
You can find all project details here: https://experiment.com/projects/blueberry-hermit-crabs-with-beach-trash-homes
We suspect that areas with high rates of tourism lead to beach combers collecting natural shells leaving nothing for the hermit crabs to use. It’s possible that overfishing of turbo snails which would naturally provide shells for the crabs may also be a factor. We will survey many sites across several islands in Okinawa to try and determine a cause of this behavior. 
We will be working closely with national geographic photographer Shawn Miller (photo credits above) and several researchers in Japan. Additionally, we will complete extensive beach clean ups in the areas we study. Thank you so much for reading!

"It might be hard to believe that this video was taken today after 155 days of genocide and war and continuous death and bombing even though Gaza still astonishes me because every single day I walk to a new place I find places that are full of beauty and life, its like the land itself is resisting to be killed to be demolished and to be wiped from the planet earth, long live Palestine and for God’s sake ceasefirenow🇵🇸"
