Healing the ground we broke
By Celia Llopis-Jepsen, David Condos, Mackenzie Martin
Published July 1, 2024"After Europeans colonized America, their descendants plowed their way across the continent, seeking prosperity through farming. But breaking up the soil – that had built up over many thousands of years – made it wash away. So some farmers are retiring their tilling equipment. Amble through #Kansas prairies and cornfields as we learn how treasuring the ground beneath our feet can lead to farms that better withstand #ClimateChange, use less #fertilizer and suck carbon out of the atmosphere."

#Kansas Town Uses #LicensePlateReaders to Go After Man Who Wrote Op-Ed
Police in #Lenexa , Kansas used automated license plate reader ( #ALPR ) technology to pursue a man who wrote a critical op-ed about the police department, according to reporting by Kansas public radio station #KCUR. This is a rare public example of exactly the kind of #abuse that we’ve long warned against when it comes to mass-surveillance systems like #licenseplate readers.
