Nowhereland

The Maroni (Castanea only-of-it’s-genus) are rolling in, Syntrophy is going well, mushrooms all over the place: Boleti, Agarix of various sorts & shapes, and if there’s bustle in our hedge-row, it might be the hedge-hog.

Where frog-tadpoles were hatching or whatever they do in spring, there are now salamander-larvae (Salamandra salamandra), some of the frogs have yellow hind-legs, another one has a pink belly – maybe that’s Zora’s recent incarnation.

Another food forest is waiting to be transplanted, plenty of chest-nuts, cherry plums, beeches and oaks, and a walnut here and there, all of them already associated and inoculated with diverse mycorrhiza

There will be Night-Life

Eco War

50.000 acres a day
Of rain forest is lost
Forever destroyed
Profit for some but at what cost?

37% to timber harvest
28% agricultural expansion
21% to wildfire
14% to mineral extraction

As has been said before this is the eco war
This is the eco war, you know what you’re fighting

60% of all wild animals
Have disappeared in 40 years
And many have gone forever
Surely a fact to fear

13% to habitat loss
31% habitat degradation
16% to climate change
40% to exploitation

As has been said before this is the eco war
This is the eco war, you know what you’re fighting

Contamination by man made chemicals
Affects every marine organism
The ocean is a dumping ground
For the effluent of consumerism
Rising acidity is killing the coral
Caused by fossil fuel pollution
And the run off from mass farming
While big business tries to shut down the solutions

As has been said before this is the eco war
This is the eco war, you know what you’re fighting
