We are fucked.

HOLY FUCKING SHIT.

This special section in Science on Aust's challenges is sobering.

"Estimates of Greenhouse gas emissions suggest that these fires released around 715 Tg (teragrams) of CO2, and annual equivalent to 80% of Aust's fossil fuel emissions..."

715 teragrams = 715,000,000,000 kg.

A perfect (and kinda secret) campsite with a burbling brook right next to our tent.

How was your weekend?

I came to work today *specifically* the receive this package. Been sitting here since 0839 yet FedEx tells me I'm not here.

Anyone else noticed a rapid decline in Fedex's services of late?

We can also no longer ship dry ice from an office, as they closed the one that was authorised to do it.

Spotted this rustic-looking shelter whilst kayaking in Grand Teton National Park on Sunday. I don't reckon it's really allowed to be there, but it would be a good spot for some stealth camping, if that's your vibe.

Have you ever seen a White-lined sphinx (affectionately known as the hummingbird moth)?

Another creature I'd never seen before moving to North America.

If I'd never moved to North America, I'd never have seen pikas. My life is better for it. SQUEE #pika
