  1. All-around very cool story and well worth the read. 💛

    #Nuns & #NativeWomen from the #indigenous #Shinnecook tribe in #NewYork have started a #kelp #farm to help remove #carbon & #nitrogen / #nitrates #pollution from their #ocean waters.

    After two years, there are #scallops, #clams, #SeaHorses, and other #MarineLife not seen in years, sheltering the kelp lines.

    It's not just an #environmental success story, but of #friendship, #allyship, & support as well. 💪

Canada let RCMP & their other #IndianAct agents take #NativeWomen & #abused & #exploited them just like Japan did w/many #AsianWomen in #WorldWarII .
