Camelina, a friendly li'l brassica is a superhero!
1. It cleans contaminated soils, slurping up nickel--which can then be harvested (phytomining!) for use
2. It improves the soil's fertility
3. Its oil can be used in biofuels."We believe that there is currently enough nickel in the barren soil in the U.S. to supply us for 50 years of phytomining,” says [phytoremediation prof] Dhankher.

CW: Bucketlist
On my #BucketList I don't have riches and fame or a world cruise.
Instead I have:
* rewetting a #PeatLand
* planting a #TinyForest
* planting a bamboo forest where a toxic landfill used to be ( #PhytoRemediation )I feel like I'm already rich, because I'm healthy, surrounded by still quite intact nature and currently have no existential crises.
I'm already famous, because I have a few friends and am hosting a great community on my Fediverse instances.
And I'm already on a world trip traveling by train to nearby demonstrations and activist camps every now and then, meeting all kinds of people.
