One of the projects that has influenced me most over the past few years - the @futurehistories.bsky.social podcast by Jan Groos - is entering an exciting new chapter. Take a look and follow along to see what’s ahead. Or are you confident that we can make it without any structural change?

Paludiculture offers a promising land-use pathway to cut GHG, restore biodiversity, and support sustainable development. Using the HILCSA method, socio-ecological interactions could be better understood. However, reliable primary I/O data is still too scarce to conduct LCAs.
