  6. I am starting a live Clojure coding session on Twitch. twitch.tv/greencoder

    Topic of the day: Implementing a mini version of Reagent using Signaali.

    #Clojurescript #Reagent #Signaali

  7. I will be on twitch in a couple of minutes, starting the rewrite from scratch of #Vrac using the library #Signaali which I published recently.

    It's usually a slow stream, but you can join and ask question at any time.

  8. A #GreenCorridor to evacuate Palestinian civilians from #Gaza into #Egyptis being arranged.

    Unfortunately, it seems the feasible way to save people.

    Yes, you may smugly point out works for bibi's #nazi regime to empty Gaza and re-populate as they see fit.

    Under #bibi's fash regime, the response will NOT be commensurate, reasonable or moderate.

    #Hamas does NOT protect Palestinians. Their only aim is to kill and destroy Israel.

    To receive justice, people must be alive, first.

  9. RT @CEFTA_: 2⃣.0⃣0⃣0⃣.0⃣0⃣0⃣ is a number that can mean a lot of things. Today it means a great success for the #GreenCorridors/ #GreenLanes, as many trucks as
    2.000.000 had benefited from this initiative.

  11. #Urban #WildlifeCorridors Help Mitigate #Climate Effects

    Kyle Chan February 26, 2025

    Excerpt: "#GreenCorridors offer a promising start to mitigating these urban issues, allowing cities to naturally lower temperatures through evapotranspiration, a plant process that releases water vapor to cool the surrounding air. Increased vegetation will also allow more hazardous particulate matter (PM2.5) and carbon dioxide (CO2) to be absorbed, reducing greenhouse gas concentration and improving air quality.

    "#Columbia’s second-largest city, #Medellín, launched a green corridor initiative in 2016. Since then, environmental planners there added rows of vegetation along the most polluted avenues, maximizing the amount of CO2 intake from their $16.8 million investment. Maurício Correa, a researcher studying environmental engineering at a Colombian University, found that the 8,800 trees planted became effective 'green barriers' against particulate matter and reduced average city temperature by two degrees Celsius.

    "Fighting #ClimateChange isn’t the only thing green corridors can do. Historically, #wildlife has rarely been welcomed into urban life, experiencing drastic changes in the #ecosystem. However, nature-based infrastructure can promote #biodiversity and provide animal species with a safe habitat. Green corridors are indeed multi-purpose and flexible. To maximize the limited space in busy cities, green corridors can function as recreational centers, city facilities and much more—all while mitigating climate change.

    "Green corridors can be an effective solution for any city anywhere. In #NewYork, the #ManhattanWaterfrontGreenway consists of almost 32 miles of #BikePath lined with various plant species. Urban '#NatureWays' in #Singapore mimic the natural #rainforests by incorporating trees with #canopies stretching across the roads."

  12. "Efforts began in 2016 under Medellín’s then mayor, Federico Gutiérrez (who, after completing one term in 2019, was re-elected at the end of 2023). The city launched a new approach to its urban development — one that focused on people and plants.

    The $16.3 million initiative led to the creation of 30 Green Corridors along the city’s roads and waterways, improving or producing more than 70 hectares of green space, which includes 20 kilometers of shaded routes with cycle lanes and pedestrian paths.

    These plant and tree-filled spaces — which connect all sorts of green areas such as the curb strips, squares, parks, vertical gardens, sidewalks, and even some of the seven hills that surround the city — produce fresh, cooling air in the face of urban heat. The corridors are also designed to mimic a natural forest with levels of low, medium and high plants, including native and tropical plants, bamboo grasses and palm trees."

  13. A small garden corner can completely change how an outdoor space feels with just a few layered plants and natural textures. Compact green spaces often create the most peaceful atmosphere when simple details are planned well. These garden ideas bring fresh inspiration for making even small corners feel alive and beautifully styled.

  14. #Hornbills, #otters and even a #tapir: #Singapore is #rewilding

    Once-lost species are coming back to the densely built-up city-state

    September 14, 2023

    "In a metropolis of 5.6m people, says Lim Liang Jim, head of biodiversity at the National Parks Board, the priority has been conserving or recreating natural habitats, as well as connecting natural spaces with corridors to let species move and spread. The #renaturalisation of river banks that were previously concreted over helped the otters. A former #railway to #Malaysia is now a “#GreenCorridor” whose damp verges are full of #insects, #frogs and #waterhens. The planted sides and central verges of highways allow smaller animals to move more safely."
