As an enslaved person, she had knitted/spun endlessly and when free later in life, she taught knitting to former enslaved women aiding self-sufficiency #womensart
- Reposted by TidelinesI'm a researcher primarily in adaptation. We are not even adapted to where the climate is today. If you think you can seawall your way through a 4°C planet, you are straight up dreaming. Mitigation AND adaptation, or you end up with way more of option 3 for dealing with climate change: suffering.

- Reposted by TidelinesTrumpian turn by Starmer. The fact that so many legal challenges succeed shows that the courts agree with them. As @ruthtingay.bsky.social says, “economic growth based on environmental and climate degradation is a loser’s game.” www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

- Reposted by TidelinesVital reading for the government with its current obsession with growth at all costs (growth of what and for whom is never spelt out). A commitment to restore nature was conspicuous by its absence from PM’s Plan for Change, launched last month - that urgently needs to change 👇

- As 2024 drew to a close, we surveyed salmon redds in the upper reaches of the Exe. In 2025 we will continue creating ways to bring people together to celebrate and care for our river and estuary. Happy new year to our collaborators, and all residents of the Exe, human and other-than-human.

- Reposted by TidelinesAll the evidence shows importance of greater access to nature, so cuts to England’s national parks are short-sighted & self-defeating. Instead Govt should reform them, give them a strong nature recovery focus & recognise their contribution to health & wellbeing www.theguardian.com/environment/...
