  2. Maybe next month, I'll have more spoons to share about why I didn't want to join some local Asian run organizations. Partly because of how many are seemingly OK with never trying to challenge capitalism. Partly because I don't share their lack of compassion/concern for more marginalized folks. I really dislike the queerphobia BS & tolerance of misogynistic crap too. I was also not cool with how some of them were blatantly racist towards Black & First Nations folks. Not OK.
    I am huge on inclusion & support for marginalized folks. I don't bend for those who don't share similar humanitarian mindsets - no matter who they are.

  6. Pacific farmers are reviving traditional knowledge to tackle a changing climate

    Drawing on long-held knowledge, research is helping farmers better adapt to climate challenges like #drought, weed pressure and declining #SoilHealth

    By Associate Professor Dorin Gupta, Dr Viliamu Iese and Dr Sineka Munidasa, University of Melbourne, Dr Leslie Ubaub, University of South Pacific and Associate Professor Soane Patolo, #MORDITongaTrust

    Published 14 August 2026

    Excerpt: " #Taro (Colocasia esculenta) is central to #Samoan diets and #CulturalIdentity and is also an important export crop. It is a carbohydrate-rich staple, consumed both fresh and in processed products like flour, chips, noodles and baby food.

    "Current techniques that use chemical #WeedKillers to grow taro are costly and negatively affect soil health and the surrounding environment.

    "Now, farmers are trialling alternative weed control methods like #mulching and #SheepGrazing, and then comparing these techniques with traditional #HandWeeding in taro cropping.

    "The integration of sheep grazing in particular is a new practice in traditional Samoan taro farming, offering an innovative approach to #WeedManagement.

    "The project has also trialled leguminous #AlleyCropping, another relatively new practice in the region, where fast-growing leguminous trees like #Gliricidia, #Sesbania and #Erythrina are planted to generate biological mulch for #WeedSuppression and #SoilEnrichment.

    "Mr Sala Sagato, the President of the #SamoaFarmers Association, is hosting one of the sites and has championed mulching."
