every time it rains instead of snows in the winter I wanna kms ngl
#Is winter just a childhood memory?#Is winter just rain and mud now?#I miss the snow#I'd settle for night starting at NOON if it would only snow (and STICK)#Every time I look outside I feel sooooo bleak.#It was 57 in Pennsylvania a couple days ago#The squirrels don't hibernate anymore#It used to be just my alpine strawberries and the needle leaves of my St John's Wort that stayed green in the winter#And I cheered for them for holding on for so long. Now I see green until December and it's sickening#I was comfortable in SHORT SLEEVES OUTSIDE in nearly January#Christmas songs and movies and decorations are so depressing bc they all include snow#The curriculum at work had the kids make snow gauges that sat in the mud all winter. Measuring nothing.#Several other lessons were anticipating snow. Like looking at it under a microscope and looking for animal tracks#And people just go hehe WaCkY MiDwEsT WeAthEr 🤪 and cheer for warmer temps#It makes me feel crazy.#Don't you get it?????? Our planet is dying!!!!! This should freak you out!!!!!#Just cus cold and snow are inconvenient doesn't mean they are bad and should go away!!!!#Winter is soooo important for our ecosystem#But no one cares about anything but convenience#And I feel like I take on the caring that other people discard about our ecosystems and planet#Cus other people don't cry when the city massacres a wooded area to build condos.#Cus deforestation is more than just killing the life there it also MAKES THINGS HOTTER GODDAMN IT#That is DIRECTLY effecting the local climate#I hate leaving the house and seeing all the land that's being sold that I know is going to get clear cut and seeing a marshy winter#When going outside used to be something I loved. It just hurts so much#Oil executives need to be lined up and shot. Their bodies used as compost.#And like I do what I can. I get kids interested in nature. I plant a native garden. I raise endangered monarch butterflies#Which helps. The year bumblebees were labeled endangered I had tons of them in my yard (New England Aster is great)#But it was absolutely DEVASTATING when i went from releasing 50+ last year to FIFTEEN this year#And like my yard is encrusted with their host milkweed and finding them used to be easy
