🤣Thanks.
I am reading the 1999 spring issue of Wild Earth again, it was one of the best.
Coming home to the Wild. Rewilding for Evolution. Bring back the Elephants. Why we need Mega reserves. Just amazing.
I really like your posts and articles. You have a different view and a great sense of humor. Alter I read your work, I go out and chop wood, shovel snow and think about it. Keep doing it.
Annual mean temperature anomaly from 1940 to present with three milestone crossings annotated. A dashed projection line suggests 2.0C could be reached around 2038 if the current pace continues.
9/ A sanity check, forget the lag model entirely.
The annual mean took 30 years to go from 0.5°C to 1.0°C, and 14 years to go from 1.0°C to 1.5°C.
If the next 0.5°C takes the same 14 years, we reach 2.0°C around 2038.
Not 2050.
Are we prepared for that?
we live in the worst society in history, one where everyone is miserable, one that is literally killing everything alive, and millions defend it every day because they can’t imagine anything else
The sun is shining after another snowfall. The snowshoe hare likes it as well.
The expansion of knowledge has unfolded alongside the expansion of harm. The damage is neither unforeseen nor poorly understood; it is documented in real time. What impedes response is not ignorance, but the gravitational pull of convenience, entrenched power, and habitual patterns of consumption.
The world lost as much as 95 million hectares of non-forest natural ecosystems, including grasslands, savannas and wetlands, to annual crops between 2005 and 2020. A comparable area (95 million hectares more) was likely converted to pasture. Together, this is an area nearly as large as Indonesia.
The most concerning part of Canada’s slow progress toward 30x30 is not that lands and waters aren’t being protected quickly enough to meet the target, but that they continue to be degraded and destroyed at a faster pace than being conserved. This imbalance is not new, but it is accelerating.
What was life like before farming? Was it nasty, brutish, and short? Or did our hunter-gatherer ancestors live lives that were relatively free, affluent, and ecologically stable?
But in places like Mount Lorne, a hamlet located forty kilometres south of Whitehorse, off-grid residents are rallying around the blue jug. “The world turns and places change, but I feel like Mount Lorne is a little bit of a gem because we’re still very community oriented,” says Jess Sellers.
This is a quote from Lyle Lewis. Enough to start the process of restoration. What is your point? The wolves around my cabin have a really good year, because the snowshoe hare population is high.
A degraded ecosystem, released from constant pressure, is being allowed to biologically manifest itself as fully as it still can. And that turns out to be enough to reorganize abundance.
Good morning grouse. Grouse are sitting on my my deck. They really like the sand under the cabin.
Currently, half of farmed insects end up in the pet food market, and only a few percent of total production goes to direct human consumption. In practice, it mostly replaces already low-impact plant ingredients, not high-emission animal products.
Agriculture has simply not had time to prove itself, and has every indication of being an ecological misfit that has monotonically pushed us toward this moment of planetary peril.
Global population is now approaching 8.3 billion people, who together consume 105 billion tonnes of materials a year – almost twice what the Earth can sustainably supply. That’s thirteen tonnes of materials to support every human – four times more than in the past.
Once again I’ll make the point that we should be actively seeking how to reduce our overall collective energy consumption rather than trying to replace our current level with different sources.
Gain back capacities for food autonomy, gain back traditional skill sets required for meeting basic needs, and to reestablish traditional indigenous and hunter-gatherer inspired socioeconomic lifeways centered on relations of ecological wellbeing within bioregionally specific contexts.
The power sector emitted more than 5.6bn tonnes of carbon dioxide (GtCO2) in 2024 – meaning that if it were its own country, it would have the highest emissions of any country except China itself.

Humans have transformed the world from the ancestral environments of our feathered friends. When birds respond to their modern anthropogenic environments in ways that appear like a death drive, we owe it to them to learn about their point of view – why do they actually behave as they do?

Only 3 month of winter left. Time to order seeds.
“In our understanding, owning land is the wrong question,” she said. “The question should be who is responsible for the land. The land existed before us, and it will exist after us.”
But the warnings are stark. Without action to draw down atmospheric carbon, the climate system will likely move into an era of accelerated warming that may be impossible to halt. Overshoot will be permanent.
