@supermiljobloggen.bsky.socialHär något riktigt positivt att läsa om när vårvärmen kommit och det knoppas överallt: om fritids- och hobbyodling stöttades på enkla sätt av staten och kommunerna, skulle den svenska livsmedelsberedskapen höjas kraftigt!
Fritidsodling kan förbättra svensk livsmedelsberedskap – rätt enkelt
FRITIDSODLING:: Enkelt stöd och stöttning från stat och kommuner till småskalig hemmaodling kan höja livsmedelsberedskapen kraftigt, enligt rapport.

One more reason to plant many, many more flowering plants! ...Evert where!!
Just to add to your worries, bee populations are collapsing this year, as high as 80% death rates in colonies. It's being called the biggest loss of bees in history with 100's of millions dead. www.cbsnews.com/news/bee-dea...
Millions of bees have died this year. It's "the worst bee loss in recorded history," one beekeeper says.
Bees play a key role in the U.S. food supply, and the mass deaths could jeopardize that.

The latest data from NOAA sends a powerful message: November 2024 was the second-warmest month in 175 years of record-keeping, and there is a 99% chance that 2024 will be the hottest year ever recorded. This is a stark reminder of the growing impact of climate change on our planet.
