(3/โ€ฆ) Buttercup's first steps on grass after being liberated from a dairy farm brightens your weekend.

Many years ago, I stopped eating meat on Mondays, soon the other days of the week followed.

Itโ€™s easy, just start this Monday (also: try oatmilk)

(4/โ€ฆ) I love this

1. Firefighters in California are in a desperate battle to defend giant sequoias

Like glaciers or coral reefs, it is another example where climate change threatens some of the most beautiful sights on our planet.

2. The changing climate changes the planet, including some of the most beautiful sights that you may see in your lives.

From the magnificent glaciers in the mountains to the coral reefs in the oceans, we destroy the most iconic examples of nature.

3. I remember how amazed I was in the 1990s when seeing some of these enormous trees in California.

Standing on the forest floor and looking up, they seemed to grow into infinity.

1. Climate anxiety: the climate crisis is even scarier from a child's perspective; 6 out of 10 say they feel betrayed by their governments.

40% of young people worldwide are hesitant to have children due to climate change.

2. Recent research found that anxiety of the youth is related to perceived government inaction.

3. A UNICEF report published last month provides some context to understand these perceptions of young people better.

The report found that approximately 1 billion children live in one of the 33 countries classified as "extremely high-risk.โ€

(1/21) On November 6, 1965, the U.S. agreed with Cuba to airlift Cubans to the United States.

In the next eight years, around 300,000 Cubans took advantage of this program and left for the country that had played a central role in its domestic politics for a long time. ๐Ÿงต

(2/21) On that very same day, U.S. President Lyndon Johnson's science advisory committee sent him a report entitled Restoring the Quality of Our Environment.ย 

Summarized in one line: a warning that burning fossil fuels will change the climate.

(3/21) Although the report correctly warned about the increase of carbon dioxide, it noted that it would take a few more years before climate models could reasonably project future global surface temperature changes.

I met him when I took this picture.

An older man, sitting on a bench, next to his parked bicycle. He warned to keep the sunlight out of my camera, and I explained that I used the willow tree on my right for that.

Soon he started talking about his life, and local history.
Born in 1944, the scars of the war were still fresh when he grew up.

His father had unwillingly been involved in the execution of ten men that had tried to escape to the liberated south of the Netherlands.

He had been forced to drive them to their execution place.
A armed soldier made sure he would do it, and more soldiers were in the back of the truck.

His father lived with the frustration that nobody did anything to liberate them, it would have been possible.

When he was eight, the dikes broke. Nearly 2000 people drowned in Zeeland.
