We need to come together as the people of our planet, boldly rethink our world, and restore what we can.

THE TROUBLE
with LOSING INTEREST
in each other
The situations on our planet are so dire, we should be thick as thieves, as entangled as these lichen & mosses.

The tremendous noise & nonsense around us doesn’t help.
The systems we invented are our ruin.
No surprise that nature is viewed as an asset far removed from us.
Reconnecting to nature & rethinking our world, that’s where a future & healing might be found.

LOSING INTEREST
I was thinking earlier how we are sometimes drawn to someone, but if this interest isn’t reciprocated, it will eventually erode.
I wonder whether that’s one of the things that happened between humans & nature.

And another unexpected mushroom find: puffballs.
I call it THE SCREAM 😱
and add a quick reminder that we can come together to put an end to all the madness on our planet.

Fomes (hoof-shaped timber fungus) on a mossy birch, found in the forest today.
To EAT THE RICH
is one way of dealing with them.
Building an economic system that empowers us all & makes the rich redundant is equally effective.

Moss on an old birch.
OUR WORLD needs some major rethinks & visions that encourage to say:
‘I never expected to live in key moments. But I am. And I can be part of getting us out of the horrors we inflicted upon each other & the planet.’

AND why do we still suffer any government that doesn’t give the restoration of our ecosystems first priority and stops all destruction?

Tilted photo of a comparatively calm sea with some splashing water in the foreground. It looks like the water is running downward.
Are we SCREAMING yet?
No?
Why are we still suffering the idiocies of warmongers, billionaires, techbros, conmen, speculators, pedophiles?

‘Maybe you’re right. Maybe I shouldn’t be such a lazy bugger & finally stand up for what is right since the people we allowed to handle the steering wheels are a bloody menace.’

DIGGING DEEPER
‘How deep should we dig?’
‘As deep as it takes to get to the roots of what made us shape a world which is blindly stumbling into self-destruction.’

Dramatic cloudy sky. I tweaked the original photo quite a bit to get the dark blue corner (right top), the sharp contrasts, and the many shades of grey.

Why is any and all of this important?

exposing what keeps governments from giving the restoration of nature first priority, finding a way to communicate that the future of the natural world concerns us all & that restoring it is a chance to come together & shape a future which doesn’t frustrate us.

Baltic Sea with sandbank in the distance.
The problem is ‘abysmal ecological ignorance’ @irishrainforest.bsky.social wrote yesterday.
These words keep echoing in my mind, not least because no matter where I go these days: the beach, the forest, the dunes, the promenade, the village, the balcony🧵

Beach covered in traces of several heavy vehicles, dark blue sea & blue skies.
We can’t avoid the rather unpleasant & unflattering task of reviewing our attitudes towards and our knowledge & understanding of nature.
Not if we want a future.

BUG WATCH
Today a finally saw a few more bugs, including a bright yellow butterfly, but overall there’s scarily few around.
This firebug nearly slipped away before I could catch it.
