Thank you for summing up all my current frustrations. Musk and Trump are cut from the same cloth: horrible father and too much money. Makes for a very bad combination. I'm frustrated that Democrats can't subvert Manchin's obstructionism. I do feel they're not doing enough in this insanely precarious time of global emergency.

Hurrah for escape! (Don't come back. It ain't safe here..)

A local guerilla gardening group to which I am party is organizing rewilding events, one yard at a time. Rip out that useless lawn, and replace it with clover at the minimum, local, indigenous pollinator plants and native plants, shrubs, and trees. This is simple - if you want to take CO2 out of the air and put back O, the least efficient way to do so is with a blade of grass. Clover has the added benefit of pulling nitrogen from the air, including NOx, and putting the nitrogen into the soil, where it improves soil chemistry for other plants too.

The greatest joy in the world is restoring the earth. Getting your posse to join you is dessert.
