1/ There are two broad approaches to deal with 'information overwhelm':

1. Manage the flow (but still consume it all!) - use shortcuts, tools & tricks, and triaged prioritisation
2. Close the tap - stop the information coming in at the source.

I think #2 is more critical.

2/ I've realised the need to improve my filters & make peace with the fact I won't get to it all.

You don't need to listen to every podcast/read every newsletter (esp. if you're trying to appear smart!) Attention is too precious to not enjoy the process of engaging with content.

3/ My goal is to have 2 lists: 'read' & 'don't read'.

There are thousands of non-fiction books out there, and everyone is convinced that the current book on their nightstand is a 'must-read'.

Whilst I take note of these recommendations, there is only so much time in the world.

I remember back in the day, on my old account (I still have the screen captures somewhere) I showed everyone “Devils Tower” was A tree. 2 months after I showed this, Scientists came forward saying Yes, it was in fact A tree ..

I archived everything offline.

https://twitter.com/vvission123/status/1402783129551708170

The REAL Question everyone should be asking is, WHY NAME A #TREE “DEVILS TOWER” ? …

You know just as I do that THEY ALL knew it was A tree this whole time & hid the truth from everyone ..

Tree of life ..
#AVATAR

Everything the world knows is mostly lies ..

Everything is flipped flopped to purposely drive everyone away from where they should be .. THEY ALL knew if everyone knew the truth of who they are, where they come from & where they should all have been from the very beginning - it exposed everyone & showed how corrupt

@folkhorrormagpi

The mesmerising driftwood sculptures of Japanese artist Nagato Iwasaki.

All of the figures are part of an interconnected work that Iwasaki calls simply ‘Torso’ and each have undergone a painstaking process of construction over the past 25 years.

“Gathering bits of wood from here and there, like an insect building a nest, I create sculptures” says the artist in one of his few interviews. Driftwood of just the right shape and size to mimic a human collarbone or the curve of a pelvis

#WHO_ARE_YOU?

During one of his travels, #Kalidasa felt very thirsty and looked around for water.

He saw a woman drawing water from a well.
He went up to her and asked her for water.

She agreed to give him water, but asked him, “Who are you? Introduce yourself.”

Now Kalidasa thought that an ordinary village woman was not worthy of knowing who Kalidasa was.

So he said, “I am a traveller.”

But his lady replied, “In this world there are only #2_travellers the Sun and the Moon. Both Rise and Set every day and keep travelling perpetually.

Then Kalidasa said, “Alright then, I am a guest.”

The lady promptly replied, “In this world there are only #2_guests – #Youth and #Wealth … both are temporary and hence can only be called as guests.”

Day6 at #SaveTheTree #SaveYorkGardens The 100 year old rare black poplar T68 is due to be felled to make way for an electrical cable. @thameswater @TaylorWimpey @wandbc @UKPowerNetworks Details below.

For those of you who want some background blurb. winstanleyyorkroad.co.uk/masterplan
The trees you can see here would be about 30 years in the future, lovely light, lots of trees, people sunning themselves. It is a common visual trick used by developers. 'Artistic licence'

The #tree in question is this one, T68. It would be right in the middle of the new open space area.

1/9 🚨New @Diversity_Turn paper on #tree🌳diversity and stand structure in the #vanilla landscape of northeastern #Madagascar🇲🇬 is finally out in @ApplVegSci
Check this thread for the main takeaways!
#OA paper: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/av…

2/9 Madagascar harbors an exceptionally high diversity of endemic species, especially trees. Many of these species are restricted to the humid Northeast where smallholder vanilla agroforests shape the landscape and support local livelihoods

3/9 Tropical agroforestry has the potential to reconcile biodiversity conservation with production goals. However, agroforests differ in land-use history and this is often neglected in research and policy.

@camcitco

To achieve our ambition of a 2% increase in #tree canopy cover across #Cambridge, we need businesses & residents to plant #trees on privately owned land to accompany the 2,000 trees being planted on @camcitco public land.

Here's a thread of how to plant, the Cambridge way:

Step 1 of 12: (If planting in grass) Cut away turf using spade

Step 2 of 12: Dig a pit to accommodate your new #tree, ensuring it is wide and deep enough for the bare roots or root ball of your tree

My piece in @MongabayIndia on relocation from #Wayanad #Wildlife Sanctuary based on my @MPhilCL @Cambridge_Uni research supervised by @EliaApos Ialso drew on my yrs of experience.Resettlement from #ProtectedAreas (PA) is contentious @csandbrook 1/22

& I discuss a largely ignored narrative:of people seeking support for relocation.Historically,resettlements have been poorly recorded; there have been evictions from PAs that have led to penury, isolation, further impoverishment, which I strongly condemn.There is NO room 2/22

for forced,induced,unjust resettlement. However,it is troubling that resettlement discourse has ignored the narrative of people voluntarily seeking to move out of PAs where they face immense hardship due to lack of access to education,healthcare, markets,roads,jobs,business

Hey #YYJ #Victoria #Tree #Arborist peeps - can anyone id this conifer for me? It's in my neighbouring yard - home to generations of birdies: chickadees, nuthatches, downy woodpeckers, wrens.. and it's about to be demolished for new condo; and I'm heartbroken.

@CityOfVictoria

The new @CityOfVictoria #TreePreservation Bylaw calls for a fee of $2000/tree to fund the planting of a replacement tree elsewhere. (But has no provisions that I know of for wildlife protection)

🚜🌎💚 Land use, #farming & how this impacts on #ClimateChange is under scrutiny

Today, the Committee on Climate Change (@thecccuk) have launched their new Land Use report

What does it say, does it focus on the right things and is it ambitious enough? ow.ly/HSDC50y2HXK

@theCCCuk

@theCCCuk @UKSustain @SoilsAlliance @SusFoodTrust @LandworkersUK @FOLUCoalition @GreenerUK_ @GreenAllianceUK @WCL_News @DefraGovUK @NFUtweets The report comes at a time when #farming, #landuse and its impact on #climatechange is under the spotlight like never before.

This @theCCCuk report will be a major influence on what farmers will be rewarded for doing to adapt to climate change. ow.ly/HSDC50y2HXK

Nature must be given equal emphasis in shaping the future of post-#Brexit #farm support, as #farming and #landuse is also the primary driver of global #insect decline and the #biodiversity crash.
