Sorry I've been distant and sad lately. I'm dealing with the crushing existential dread of living on a beautiful planet bursting with life, only to watch the dumbest motherfuckers alive destroy it while chasing as much money as they can hoard.

food, drought, climate change and the rest
If the fire alarm goes off what do you do? Presumably you follow the procedure laid out, leave the building in a calm manner and wait for instructions. It may be a drill/practice so your biggest worry might be how cold the coffee on your desk is going to get. What you do not do is ignore it. People have been sounding the alarm about climate change for many decades. Why have so many people ignored those calls? At best it is almost too late now, at worst bad changes to our weather and climate […]https://sundrytimes2.wordpress.com/2026/09/30/food-drought-climate-change-and-the-rest/

“Deep beneath the seemingly still surface of the world’s peatlands lies one of the planet’s most consequential plumbing systems. These waterlogged landscapes cover only about three percent of the global land surface, yet they store more carbon than all terrestrial biomass combined. When they are drained for forestry, agriculture, or peat extraction, the falling water table exposes ancient organic matter to oxygen, accelerating decomposition and releasing carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Estimates suggest that every centimetre of water-table decline adds roughly 0.3 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent per hectare per year, a relationship that has transformed many drained peatlands from net carbon sinks into persistent carbon sources. Rewetting through ditch blocking and damming has therefore become a cornerstone of climate mitigation policy, enshrined in initiatives such as the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration and the European Union’s legally binding Nature Restoration Law. But a fundamental question has haunted restoration practitioners for decades: when you block a ditch, how far does the benefit actually spread?...”
“A new study [link above] offers the most mechanistically complete answer yet. [T]he research used a fully integrated three-dimensional physics-based model called HydroGeoSphere to simulate how rewetting propagates through a boreal fen… Unlike the sparse point measurements that dominate conventional restoration assessments, the model resolved water-table dynamics across the entire 224-hectare mire and its 556-hectare headwater catchment at daily resolution over a full hydrological year, generating millions of spatially explicit data points that no field campaign could ever collect…”

H/T @kevin Pilgrim, PE | I specialize in mountain hydrology, hydraulics, fluvial geomorphology, post-fire flood hazard assessment. Contact me for hire if you want to understand flood risk near where you live.
“An old lesson Denver Water is still reacting to. High intensity wildland fires burn watersheds and deliver sediment to the reservoirs at previously unmeasured rates…
The droughts, wildfires, floods will only increase these issues.
Why do [the H/T] say large dams are not the answer? This. The reservoirs are unlikely to last their intended design life as Denver Water realized.
We can not glue sand to mountains after fires…”

“The enhanced probability of catastrophic wildfires has increased our need to understand the risk of floods, erosion, and debris and contaminant transport in burned watersheds. This project investigates the relation between rainfall intensity and peak discharge; erosion and deposition processes; and water-quality impacts to minimize the loss of life and property resulting from post-wildfire floods…”

H/T @kevin Pilgrim, PE | I specialize in mountain hydrology, hydraulics, fluvial geomorphology, post-fire flood hazard assessment. Contact me for hire if you want to understand flood risk near where you live.
“An old lesson Denver Water is still reacting to. High intensity wildland fires burn watersheds and deliver sediment to the reservoirs at previously unmeasured rates…
The droughts, wildfires, floods will only increase these issues.
Why do [the H/T] say large dams are not the answer? This. The reservoirs are unlikely to last their intended design life as Denver Water realized.
We can not glue sand to mountains after fires…”

“The enhanced probability of catastrophic wildfires has increased our need to understand the risk of floods, erosion, and debris and contaminant transport in burned watersheds. This project investigates the relation between rainfall intensity and peak discharge; erosion and deposition processes; and water-quality impacts to minimize the loss of life and property resulting from post-wildfire floods…”

Doomsday doesn't have to mean the end of the world overnight.
Climate change can look like failed harvests, disappearing water sources, extreme heat, floods, stronger storms, and communities struggling to recover.
The climate crisis is already here. What we do today can shape how difficult tomorrow becomes.
Protecting soil, water, forests, and biodiversity isn't just about nature. It's about protecting our future.

Mining companies are just as bad as the tobacco industry fuck these jokers. Kids are being "petro-groomed".
"They said: 'Oh, they just come in and, you know, talk about mining and, you know, the petrochemical industry,' and immediately my hair went up on the back of my neck."
