  8. 100% germination rate on my slices of sugarcane. Planted them all in a cracked plastic storage container I was using for hydroponics with a few holes drilled in the bottom. (to better contain it... although it's not bamboo, it definitely could create an impenetrable sugar cane forest in a wet area). #sugarcane #gardening

  10. Over October New Single ‘Manatili’ Out on April 17

    A heartfelt track about the moments you wish could last forever or even just a little longer. The song began with a scene. Two people at the end of a good date, neither quite ready to say goodbye. From there, the band expanded the idea together, shaping it into something more layered. What started as a romantic prompt slowly opened up into a reflection on time, presence, and the emotions that come with knowing something will eventually pass. The word itself carries weight. “Manatili” is […]

  20. 📺 "How Sugar Waste Is Turned Into Housing"

    🗒 "Most of us only think about sugar when it comes to health. But after sugarcane gets processed, it leaves behind mountains of leftover fibre called bagasse, and a lot of it gets burned.

    So in this video, I’m visiting the University of East London to see an alternative way it could be used: Sugarcrete, a building material made from sugarcane waste"

  22. A Month After #Trump Doubles Down on #Atrazine, #WHO Dubs It ‘Probably #Carcinogenic to Humans’

    “It is outrageously irresponsible that we still allow use of this dangerous #poison in the United States,” said the Center for Biological Diversity’s environmental health science director.

    "Just a month after the Trump administration doubled down on the alleged safety of atrazine, a United Nations agency said on Friday that the pesticide—which is banned by dozens of countries but commonly used on #corn, #sugarcane, and #sorghum in the United States—probably causes #cancer.

    " 'It is outrageously irresponsible that we still allow use of this dangerous poison in the United States,' said Nathan Donley, the Center for Biological Diversity’s environmental health science director, in a Friday statement. 'This finding is just the latest indictment of the industry-controlled US #pesticide oversight process that is failing to protect people and #wildlife from chemicals linked to numerous health harms.'
