On giving Tuesday I like to support a worthwhile organization doing powerful regenerative work globally. There are many of these organizations worth supporting. A few that come to mind are: Savory Global, Soil for Climate, Planet Wild,, and Leaf of Life. This year selected Soil for Climate

In Mexico for a training and to visit friends. I am particularly taken by recent improvements in Merida, such as this airy-looking bus traveling down an avenue with exceptional traffic calming measures: narrow streets, clear pedestrian crossings, & bollards with downlighting 1/?

With the danger of PFAS chemicals being allowed back into the food system with #Petrochemical #Pesticides, it’s time to grow more produce at home and reduce our reliance on American imports. #Ontario #Canada stop #hwy413

Snow is coming and our classist, gendered snow clearing protocols need to change. #ontario #toronto

If these people were dropping an album, it might be called 'Backdrop of Death' #ecocide #rightsofnature #regenerativefuture #firstpeople #landback

It's time to walk away from the Fossil fools

I concur. May it not be so but if it happens politicize it.

#habitat and #biodiversity are important for many reasons. Returning atmospheric carbon to the soil where it belongs is one of those reasons @onpoli #Ontario needs to make better choices #hwy413

Congratulations to L.A. on the win, and to the Bluejays for an incredible season! Shoutout to #Toronto for not having their field surrounded by a sea of parking! #urbanplanning #walkable #transitoriented

Danger in housing stability ahead @fordnation #ontario Ford is more and more a mini-Trump. Just what we need, 🙄 an explosion of #homelessness driven by greed.

Flow matters #fengshui #behavior

📢📢📢CALLING ALL PARENTS ALL ACROSS ONTARIO!!! SHARE WIDELY! Join Parents Against Speeding and plan a local event on Oct 20 to protest the shutting down of Ontario's life-saving school zone speed safety camera program. Tell Doug Ford it's wrong to care more about lawbreakers than kids' safety!

#Toronto this is true. Longer, wider and more massive vehicles leave no room for others to park. And they are more likely to kill.

😱 This is what happens when Greens lead! Since @davidbelliard.bsky.social from @lesecologistes.fr became Paris’ deputy mayor in 2020, cars were deprioritized, cycling boosted & pollution dropped. 🌻 Cleaner air, safer streets: this is what we want, at a local, national and European level.

With no education, no comprehension, no vision and most certainly has no concern for the fallout from his actions, @fordnation will do whatever ensures that he and his buddies are getting ahead. #onpoli We've seen in the past that means eschewing expert opinions or even firing them as in the #ECO

Just saying #ontario #Toronto; @fordnation is off base.

Four cars down . rawr 14 bikes up: silence

Military action poisons and scorches earth #justsayno #earthangles #earthangels

#Ontario, can you only imagine? #region #rail

Oh my heaven

Again, rewrap the earth in a living cuticle; the plant matter that encapsulates its watershed and refills its river flow #regenerative #earth #fengshui #healing

#Toronto, don't let this be you. e-bikes and bicycles are not truly the danger. A lack of protection for vulnerable road users and missing bike lanes is where the danger begins. #vehicularhomicide

#Toronto, while this happened in NY, the same issue exists in our city and in the GTHA region. @tps.ca needs to once again focus on the real dangers from reckless car & SUV drivers and spend less time frivolously harassing #cyclists. #ONpoli needs to push this issue

#nature finds its way #inherent evolutionary resistance

Current AC creates more heat and pumps it all to external habitats, to unwise impact…

👀 "Marilyn Slett, president of the Coastal First Nations-Great Bear Initiative, said that there is no pipeline or oil tanker project that would be acceptable to their group, and any proposal to send crude oil through their coastal waters is a "non-starter." Read more: www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Ah the dream of cycling through beautiful landscapes on exceptional infrastructure… #europe #onpoli you awake?

#ontario there are options. Many of us would opt out of driving if safe routes existed. #bicycle #bikelanes #completestreets

#ontario watch your assets #watermatters @fordnation is trying to sell off your water. #onpoli

Spending billions on new lanes and roads does not improve traffic! #jevonsparadox #Ontario @fordnation #onpoli #justthefacts

1/? The ring of fire region in Northern Ontario is habitat. Rock and living breathing wetland. Water cannot be separated from water...

Stop Bill 5 before it guts democracy

Heartbreaking situation regarding the #TexasFloods. So important to understand what the risks are for any extreme events likely in your area. This is an excellent informative video: A lot is happening on the planet with weather systems and tectonics. Not all is easy to predict. Be aware; be ready.

Hey #Toronto, sound familiar? Let's keep all road users safe with smart street design and #bikelanes.

#Toronto, join in today at 2 pm for the live stream to look at a calmer way of creating neighbourhoods and community. Or watch the replay on your own time. #walkable #gentledensity

rebranding the 15 min city.

Unsurprising, #Toronto.

In #Toronto center, I'm lucky to have a garden! My 5'x8' plot may seem limited, but I manage to grow a variety of food: curly, dinosaur and Ethiopian kale, collard greens, cucumber, zucchini, mint, parsley and sage, plus sunflowers & lavender. #regenerative: no dig, compost, roots 365, soil covered

#ontario #onpoli The independant Environmental Commissioner was conveniently removed by @fordnation in 2019 to enable these larger harms. He was playing the long game of environmental harm and #biodiversity and #habitat loss for #developer profit.

“A plan to reintroduce wolves to Japan more than a century after they were hunted to extinction is gaining traction as conservationists warn that the country’s rural ecosystems are increasingly out of balance and costly to maintain due to booming wild animal populations www.scmp.com/week-asia/he...

Oh look #onpoli @fordnation is that similar blanket legislation like Bill 5 to allow all harms? #Trump

Heartbreaking, the extent to which Canada continues to follow the US example of car-centricity, (greed and corruption). @fordnation #Toronto #greenbelt #onpoli

The power of regenerative systems ecology integrated with permaculture farming creates a magical ecosystem alive with the chirps of frogs, the buzz of insects, a cacophony of birdsong, and uncountable mammals on a bed of rich moist soil which prevents flooding and produces highly nutrious food.

Horrifying that any wild creatures integral to their healthy ecosystem are culled in the support of artificial livestock practices. #ireland #ecology #agriculture

For a long time the awake and aware have been conscious of the horrors of our systems of seacatch. #ecosystem #clearcut #biodiversity

Our cities do not need driverless cars. They urgently need more carless drivers! www.facebook.com/share/v/1EfP... via Urban Cycling Institute (#GoCab by Van Raam fietsen: vanraam.com/.../news/goc...)

More of us need to stand up and speak the truth, that cars are weapons; the larger and heavier the car, the more complete the harm. Yesterday, a car crashed into and obliterated a bar in my neighbourhood. Thankfully, it was after hours, and no one was hurt. #Toronto #onpoli

Oddly, smaller safer cars are not currently being manufactured and sold in North America

Note the time period. LA's situation isn't so dire. And you can see our subway construction from space radar! docs.google.com/document/d/1...
