1. These high-tech windows fight climate change – and will save you money

“[“Vacuum-insulated glass”] insulates five times better than double-paned glass. The Enthermal product line holds energy about as well as fiberglass wall insulation[…. T]he energy bill savings offset the upfront cost of the upgrade in two to seven years, depending on the building[….]”

2. Doulas test ways to curb Memphis’ Black maternal, infant deaths

“Research shows they are key to better health outcomes. […] Free of charge, [parents enrolled in this pilot program], in addition to being paired with a doula, get access to free yoga classes, diapers, breastfeeding starter kits, nutritious food and other tangible help that can measurably boost well-being.”

3. Scientists find feeding grazing cattle seaweed cuts methane emissions by almost 40%

“This is the first study to test seaweed on grazing beef cattle in the world. […] Most research to reduce methane emissions using feed additives has taken place in controlled environments with daily supplements. But Kebreab noted in the study that fewer than half of those methods are effective for grazing cattle.”

4. Success for local residents as Florida council toppled over sewage plant plan

“A citizens’ revolt in a small Florida city ousted an entire slate of councilors who were pushing for a new sewage plant to be built close to one of the state’s most pristine and treasured rivers.”

5. Beaver survey aims to show the urban benefits of Chicago's 'ecosystem engineers'

“Urban Rivers is installing [“artificial floating gardens”] along the river to restore native wetland habitats, which provide food and shelter for wildlife, as well as natural spaces for humans.”

6. The future of plastic: Biodegradable, durable, and even edible

“[… T]he composite plastic proved not only sturdy but also more malleable than its core component, hydroxyethyl cellulose. Additionally, since both cellulose and tyrosine are edible, the biodegradable composite plastic can technically be consumed.”

7. Limestone quarries could be vital for wild bee conservation

“Quarries provide valuable habitats for wild bees and other animals and plants that occur on the now rare calcareous grasslands," explains lead author Dr. Felix Kirsch[….]”

8. New England wedding vendors offer help to same-sex couples before Trump inauguration

“Marriage equality isn’t immediately at risk. Trump has said he considers it settled law, but of course it’s hard to take him at his word […] so vendors in the region are offering free or discounted services to queer couples and noncitizens in a rush to marry.”

9. The indigenous women saving India's endangered giant yams

“Since their formation in 2022, the 10 members of the Noorang group have planted and brought back to the community 180 varieties of wild tubers[….] The project is part of [… a] farming initiative to eradicate poverty, provide agricultural training and empower women in vulnerable tribal communities.”

10. The US is making and deploying more solar panels than ever before

“[… D]omestic solar module manufacturing capacity has nearly quintupled since 2022[….] Solar is the cheapest source of new power generation by far, and it’s an increasingly large employer in the U.S., particularly in Republican-led states.”

i wrote this as a joke because I wanted to strangle a guy watching tiktoks without headphones on the bus, but im genuinely disturbed that we've gotten to a point where convenience comes first. and it depresses me even more that its used to justify and monetize greed

[heelanhomestead]

Today is such a special day, as our solar panels have gone on and we’re finally able to generate some of our own electricity. It’s been a long time coming, but at last we can tick this stage off the list.

Happy and grateful … 🥹👍

Kinda pissed off rn. My environmental prof is making us calculate our 'overshoot days' for an assignment and create a gameplan to push them back farther, as if we as individuals hold a candle to the kind of environmental destruction being wrought by Big Oil and Gas 🙄

being a homeowner(apartment owner) is so stressful 😭 like I pay rent to the homeowner association in my block and they use the rent for upkeep and they just cleaned out my pipes(every spring theres something new) but informed me that if there's ever a leak they'll pay for drying and removing the damaged part but if I want a new bathroom or kitchen or whatever, it's from my pocket 🥲 but they fixed my kitchen pipes 💗 so wahoo!!!! i either wanna change out the sink & counter(I like my cupboards) or just move to my dream home sksndndnd I hate the sink I have now 🥰 but since I own the apartment I'm like??? I'm allowed to??? just change it??? INSANE CONCEPT! and I might even have the budget for it 😭😭😭😭(too scared to check because if it's true I might jump on it instantly)

Fall into off grid living

Living off grid is not for everyone, but it’s perfect for me. I don’t need much to be happy. Just a cozy cabin, a good book, and a cup of tea. Solitude and freedom are my therapy. 🏡🌲🌳🍃🍂
