🌿go & be in a place with plants & trees for 15 mins
🌳You'll inhale plant oils(phytoncides) from foliage
📉your stress hormone(cortisol) will drop significantly
Many of our brain pathways evolved to motivate us to forage for plants-they're still very active

Well, it really happened. #tiktok is really gone. They think they can control us with the bann but they don’t know that we don’t need an app to expose their shadows anymore. The cat is out of the bag.

Packed my Go Bags, sitting tight & vigilant in my home in between the Eaton & Hollywood Hills fires while watching Evacuation Order alerts. Counting my blessings that my home is still safe for now but grieving for so many friends lost their homes. My heart is breaking for LA, moment by moment… #LA

Cop28 is a farce rigged to fail, but there are other ways we can try to save the planet | George Monbiot
Inaction and self-interest are built into climate summits. Instead, we need a voting system that can’t be subverted by fossil fuel producers, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Please remember to tag posts with #naturewriting so they will appear on the Nature Writing feed. I hope the hashtag will bring writers & readers together, & help create community. I'd love the feed to be as diverse as poss, so do post on the margins - where nature writing merges with other subjects.

Tonight there will be a Blue Supermoon at 9:35 ET
The moon will appear about 8% larger than a normal full moon and 15% brighter than a normal full moon.
The next one won't be until January 2037. Keep any eye out tonight!
