"How we imagine the matter of water matters....its ceaseless migrancy...in a fundamentally decentralized world...always in multiple forms of relations--and that power can be crucial in ... the capacity to animate or exhaust their participants."(p184 #RobertMacFarlane) @johnpomeroy.bsky.social #nepal

"Extractive states, they argue, are controlled by ruling elites whose objective is to extract as much wealth as they can from the rest of society and to maintain their own hold on power." (Plutocrats, p 279). Lived every day in Ab.

And who has the most accurate descriptor of many leaders, right here, at 27 mins. and following. Who knows that when we disempower masses of people they choose liars and gross abusers of human rights, and take us all down.

Difficult conversations and non-avoidant strategies need to be taught and learned as a pre-requisite to leadership. Look at this photo, same article! Guns hide cowardly and insecure leadership. Real security is learned more than earned.

Where there is confusion, inconsistency, power differential--eg cultural popularity, winner status, being part of a gang/group/team/club, physical strength, and presence/absence of clothing, consent is questionable if not absent. Judges rule on legal process not consent. @ianhanomansing.bsky.social

Well, well. Calgary's tree coverage is 8.25%. Ottawa's is 46%, Halifax, 43%, Toronto 28% and aiming for 40%. @cityofcalgarygolf.bsky.social states it aims to double to 16%. @calgaryclimatehub.ca @climatemamaclaire.bsky.social @nigelb.bsky.social @maxfawcett.bsky.social @lorenmcginnis.bsky.social

Calgary aims for 16% tree coverage. But "A modelling study last year suggested that increasing city tree cover to 30%, from a European city average of around 14%, could have cut deaths attributable to heat by a third." @calgaryclimatehub.ca www.weforum.org/stories/2024...
