Peter Byck has started a long-form video/podcast for more in-depth discussions of the benefits they are seeing across the board for regenerative agriculture. I know I’ve been focusing heavily on this topic, but the data suggests we have all we need to reduce humans’ carbon footprint. It’s a matter of time and perseverance. In Europe…
Despair only limits future action – Simon Clark Common Ground – from the same folks who produced the documentary Kiss the Ground – is out today on Prime. I screened it today. It’s dark and hopeful and realistic. I recommend it. I also recommend Kiss the Ground. Their YouTube page is here.
My city is committed to climate change solutions..and actively helping everyone move from natural gas to electricity for most of their home appliances. We also own our electric utilities here, so we have better rates than surrounding communities, making it more cost-effective than gas in many cases. This past week, I found out they have…
WordPress is having issues that they may or may not be trying to resolve. Time will tell. Unless you are signed into WordPress, you cannot comment, and even then it is very, very glitchy. I apologize, and hopefully they will correct the problem this decade. Meanwhile, use the contact forms to email us. This…
Timing is everything. I just finished watching the four-hour documentary Roots So Deep as my friends worry about having to evacuate from fire-ravaged areas around Los Angeles. To say I needed the hopefulness is an understatement. So, I know everyone is feeling a lot of hopelessness around many things, including climate change. It seemed like…
When talking about regenerative farming, it may seem impossible in a desert environment. But as experts are proving all over the world, deserts created by bad managment, over grazing and climate change can become fertile land once again, capturing carbon along the way. Here are two examples, one in Senegal: And several in the…

Just a quick hit of some videos that crossed my path this week. First up, I feel every mood Robert has in this video. May 19, 2024 Join Robert for May’s Almost Breaking News! This episode tackles misinformation about electric vehicles spread by the BBC, busts myths surrounding secondhand EVs, and delves into the world…
I don’t remember when I stumbled on Beau – he describes himself as a southern journalist and his takes are thoughtful – but this morning there was this nugget I was unaware of, so I went searching for more information. This is why I’m posting a quick hit climate post this morning before I run…
Okay, there are a lot of beaver videos here. Some general information, but most are how ordinary folks are changing their habits to rewild their land. I find that the most encouraging. Gnaw away at this post as you have time. This guy has a great intro into all things Beaver and Climate: Nov…
A reminder as we come up on Earth Day: Climate scientist Michael E Mann & historian Timothy D Snyder define doomerism: Doomerism is how we fail to fight for ourselves & one another. It is how authoritarians win. Let’s try to fight the doom. I’m going to start this post out with a caveat, while I’ve been a…
Despair only limits future action – Simon Clark ========== This is going to be a quick hit, but I know I got a little cranky in the last post with some of the persistent myths around EVs, so these two videos are a good at debunking those myths. Join Quentin Willson and Dr. Euan McTurk…
This is will be a quick hit, but I wanted to keep going on sharing good people working on climate solutions. There will be a couple more videos on regenerative farming practices from the Carbon Cowboys series and a few other videos on other topics. I will branch out to other technology going forward, but…
As I wrote previously, I want to start combining our good news posts with climate solutions. I want to highlight good people doing good things in regard to the climate crisis. It’s important to know, despite what is often a deluge of bad news on the climate, good things are happening. I’ll be highlighting regenerative…
I’ve been following this New Zealander recently – mainly because his hobby is restoring old cars and turning them into EVs – it’s pretty simple, in the scheme of things. Probably easier and less costly than restoring an old combustion engine. From there, I found out he also reviews EV cars in New Zealand –…
