Recent updates from this team-
April 28 at 3:44 PMI am concerned most with the lack of concern from most people. Most people think that either small behavioral changes don't matter or that climate change doesnt matter. We have a crisis of knowledge and understanding right now and I dont see much hope, unless you can reach some of those groups.

April 28 at 3:42 PMGlass and wood production?
-
April 27 at 8:03 AMoof what a question. I try not to think about it. I do my best and try to get others to get on board. I know it really gets my fiancé in a funk to think about how depressing it all is especially when its not up to you to change
-
April 27 at 7:59 AMsupermarket refrigerants could change the global temperature by half a degree. That's crazy. All it would take is for them to switch to a natural refrigerant.
-
April 27 at 7:51 AMThere are NONE in Vegas. WHAT..... Some in reno and lots in CA. I signed a petition on the linked website to get a local supermarket to comply. They listed on the website that you can check what refrigerants supermarkets are using when you go to the store, and submit the ones that are using high pollutant refrigerants

April 27 at 7:47 AMThe needs in the United States differ from those in a poorer country. Some of the women I learned about have no access to family planning and are not taught about it. In the US we are at least taught about it and have access to low cost birth control options

April 26 at 9:31 AMSeems like they are all arbitrary dates. States all have their own regulations. I just go by when the food looks or smells bad.
-
April 26 at 9:26 AMUsing hemp seems time intensive, but with practice and a more industrialized use of it, I think it could become widely used. It would make the most sense to use ag waste instead of uselessly throwing it away!
-
April 22 at 8:07 AMBiochar stores nutrients and when added to plants they grow better. It also stores water, which also helps plants. Adding biochar to the soil, increases the biodeversity of microorganisms. Biochar increases crop yeilds.
-
April 22 at 7:58 AMI hadn't. I think there are several advantages. It is cost effective to grow grass to feed animals instead of buying feed. You can then sell the trees as you thin them out. I watched a video about goats and the goats eat all the invasive species in the east US, which is good since those plants are hard to manage and get rid of.
