“It's hard to describe [our reality] in words,” Margarita Lomberg, a microbiologist who has worked at Kholodny for more than three decades, says.
“After a hard, sleepless night under shelling, we have to gather ourselves and work… How can we stay on the same level as other researchers if we are in much worse conditions? We are often without light, water, the ability to get to work, not to mention people dying, broken flats.”

White Christmas 🎄
================I'm dreaming of a white Christmas,
just like the ones Christ used to know,
two millennia ago, in Judea,
where the reindeer played in the snow.I'm dreaming of a white Christmas,
let's go chop down some pine trees,
light 'em up bright, with electricity,
to please our long dead deity,
while the world heats up, three degrees.I'm dreaming of a white Christmas,
because the season is fantastic,
to buy gifts made of plastic,
to fill landfills, and the sea.
Let's all go on a shopping spree!I'm dreaming of a white Christmas,
with all the third world girls and boys,
who wish for treats & toys,
and are told, that shit ain't free,
so don't milk our sentimentality.I'm screaming about a white Christmas,
because it should be plain to see,
it's just a feelgood fantasy,
to push consumption, and white supremacy.May your electric bills be high.
And may all your friends be white.#Earth #Environment #Ecology #ClimateChange

"And you know, it’s not just climate change – it’s the sum total of all of the land management decisions"
Mind you, she's a bright, realistic and thoughtful person.

EXCLUSIVE: More than four years after Russia’s full-scale invasion, fungi scientists at the M.G. Kholodny Institute of Botany have been forced to adapt to increasingly difficult working conditions.
“I don't think that someone who has not had the experience of surviving during war can understand the conditions in which people live and work in Ukraine,” says researcher Margarita Lomberg.

@primonatura What a terrible man killer?
What if the heat waves also reach out to the rest of the world if European countries are losing 35000 people dead!
Why can't we stand upright together and fight against this!
And we can only do this through conserving environment and the climate starting with what we can like tree planting
