Dandelion News - January 1-7
Like these weekly compilations? Tip me at $kaybarr1735 or check out my Dandelion Doodles!
1. Homes built with clay, grass, plastic and glass: How a Caribbean island is shying away from concrete
Tumblr media
“[… Clay] traps moisture which then evaporates and pulls heat from the surface as it goes. […] The roof is covered in old recycled advertising banners and piece of a water tank, the other half of which is used to house some of Rahaman-Noronha's fish [… and] multi-coloured glass bottles inset into walls provide an avenue for streams of light and colour.”
2. To Combat Phoenix’s Extreme Heat, a New Program Provides Sustainable Shade
Tumblr media
“The neighborhood workshops allow residents to get a shade plan tailored to their community’s needs and identify the locations where officials can plant trees. Meanwhile, the workforce-development side of the program creates the jobs needed to keep the trees alive for generations[….]”
3. Conservation corridors provide hope for Latin America’s felines
Tumblr media
“[… S]cience has shown that to maintain healthy populations there needs to be connection between individuals. [… A] protected area that is close to another has more species and more potential for their survival.”
4. Social program cuts tuberculosis cases among Brazil's poorest by more than half
Tumblr media
“The decrease [“in TB cases and deaths”] was over 50% in extremely poor people and more than 60% among the Indigenous populations. […] "We know that the program improves access to food [… and healthcare…] and strengthens people's immune defenses as a result.””
5. Geothermal has vast potential to meet the world’s power needs
Tumblr media
“New geothermal systems could technically provide as much as 600 terawatts of carbon-free power capacity by 2050[…. C]ountries could cost-effectively deploy over 800 GW of geothermal power capacity using technology that’s in development today[….]”
6. New D.C. Catholic archbishop is pro-LGBTQ+ and anti-Trump
Tumblr media
“In 2018, he objected to the blaming of gay priests for the clergy sexual abuse crisis, “saying that such abuse was a matter of power, not sexual orientation[….]” “We must disrupt those who portray refugees as enemies [… and] seek to rob our medical care, especially from the poor.””
7. Chesapeake Bay Will Gain New Wildlife Refuge
“The Chesapeake Bay area will have a new wildlife refuge for the first time in a quarter century. […] “This new refuge offers an opportunity to halt and even reverse biodiversity loss in this important place, and in a way that fully integrates and respects the leadership and rights of Indigenous peoples and local communities.””
8. Inside Svalbard seed vault’s critical mission to stop our favourite fruit and veg from going extinct
Tumblr media
“[… T]he world’s largest secure seed storage […] sits proudly in a massive former coal mine[….] Right now, there are over 1,331,458 samples of 6,297 crop species. […] “During 2024, 61 seed genebanks deposited 64,331 seed samples, including 21 from institutes that deposited seeds for the first time this year[….]””
9. Medical debt will be erased from credit reports for all Americans under new federal rule
Tumblr media
“The rule will affect more than 15 million Americans, raising their credit scores by an estimated average of 20 points. [… S]tates and localities have already utilized American Rescue Plan (ARP) funds to support the elimination of over $1 billion in medical debt for more than 700,000 Americans[….]”
10. 'Forgotten' water harvesting system transforms 'barren wasteland' into thriving farmland
Tumblr media
“"The process started with the community-based participatory planning[….]” 10% to 15% of the water will actually soak into the ground to replenish the water table, creating a more sustainable agricultural process.”

Preliminary planning started back in 2011, and in 2020, the reservoir action management plan, a detailed 260-page document was published by the Klamath River Renewal Corporation – the non-profit entity formed to manage the entire dam removal project. ''The document gave us our targets, and has kept us on track," says Joshua Chenoweth, senior ripariani ecologist for the tribe who was hired to manage the revegetation project. Between 2018 and 2021 seed collection crews – many of whom are tribal elders – were hired to harvest native seeds, by hand, in preparation for the dam removal. They collected 98 species and around 2,000lbs (900kg) of seeds. The seeds were then dispatched to specialised nurseries, which propagated them en masse, and sent the seedlings to storage facilities where they were kept until the time came for them to be planted.
Tumblr media
When it came to planting the seeds, Chenoweth has used a variety of methods, including seeding by helicopter alongside the old-fashioned way, by hand. Beginning straight after the first draining in late 2023, the team hand-sowed 500 acres of land, including 25,000 acorns. "It really is the most effective restoration tool. And the only reason we used a helicopter was when muddy conditions made it too dangerous for us to walk on the land." The results were "excellent", Chenoweth says. "Despite a hot and dry summer, where we've seeded is green, we're seeing flowering plants teeming with life. I counted eight different butterflies in the areas we hand-seeded. There's moths, hoverflies, bees, birds. It's been a really exciting first year." The team will continue to seed and plant the area for another two years, prioritising the tributaries important for salmon habitat. "The first year has definitely given me a lot of hope," Chenoweth, "but it'll probably get more challenging from here. Now we're completely at the mercy of Mother Nature."

more than one person asked so i'm making a post about it. i use this program to download torrents (it's safe, no viruses or ads, i've been torrenting for years). and this is the website where i found the ridiculously hd version of ofmd. just type "our flag means death s01" in the searchbar at the top. for s2 you might have to search episode by episode, so "our flag means death s02e01" and so on (i don't know if the season has been uploaded in a single torrent yet, it hadn't been when i downloaded it). then just click the little red magnet symbol that looks like a big U, and it'll ask you if you want to open the link with qbitorrent. click yes, pick a folder to save the episodes in your computer, and have fun (the higher the green number next to the episodes is on the website, the faster the link will download, so if a link doesn't work just pick another one). you can always ask if you get stuck somewhere, i don't mind!
oh btw 2160p is the highest definition available right now so aim for those links, I'll leave them seeding forever

Currently brainrotting over the idea of Mobei-jun as Hades and Shang Qinghua as Persephone. That is all.

For Christmas I got most of my family members a pack of heirloom seeds picked out just for them. They’re the classic kind of gardeners — they grow their peas, zucchini, tomatoes, etc. pretty much the same way as my great-great-grandparents did, with seeds bought from the same store. I’ve always been the one to branch out, and it was a lot of fun picking out seeds that would be fun for them without freaking them out too much. So I got things like Holstein cowpeas for my brother who works in dairy farming, turkey craw beans for my brother who’s a hunting enthusiast working on his turkey super slam, and giant rattle poppies for my sister-in-law who enjoys baking and flower arranging. For my niblings I got fun variations on things they already grew, like dragon tongue beans and pineapple squash.
I also gave out seeds I saved from my garden, and I’m proud of how the seed packets I made turned out!
Tumblr media
The okra and rats tail radishes are new to them, but I think they can handle it. And I think I’ve convinced some of my family to try the love of my life next year, Swiss chard
To top it all off, all of the seed packets were “wrapped” by putting them in the envelopes from our leftover wedding invitations (from years and years ago, and printed with an old address so they’d be a pain to use for anything else)

saving seeds does NOT save you money but rather allows you to use the same allowance to try new seeds.

We have had 3 hard frosts and the veggies still pull through. It pays to save your seeds as seeds have a memory.
Booking tours now through mid April 2025.

People complaining their skinzun is pregnant with new skittens again and it's like gurl 🙄 he's a skinzun. He's supposed to be fat and pregnant. Like yes, you have a skinjiu, and they usually lack the same intrinsic motherly instinct, but like, bruh, I guarantee He's also ovulating and going out at night when you're not looking. He's just eating the babies before you see them.
It's like a thing. And no it's not immoral. Skinjius will give birth to nonsentient balls of meat 9/10 times and then eat them back for nutrition. It sounds more gross than it is.
Just let your skinzun be fat and ready to pop a new litter ok. Stop judging. It's literally healthy for them.
And if you're going to be one of those guys whose like but I didn't even get to keep the skinhe! He was gone hours after being born. Dude, the pillar told skinzun to carry him to his place in the world. He's fine. Like I understand that outside the neighbinghood creatures aren't divinely placed by a pillar of flesh for some reason but seriously man get with the program.
Are you even drinking your allotted skinzun milk for ascension?
