Winter biking through the snpw has its own thrills but now it’s...

    Forests as a carbon sequestration resource is such a flat and utilitarian way of thinking about them. They support so many different ecosystem services, so many different species, so many priceless trophic chains.

    It's easy to find and choose palm oil free margarin in stores, but giving up / replacing coffee and chocolate is hard. Maybe tea instead?

    Instead of waste, I'd rather spend this on my garden renovation, summer vacation or hobbies.
