If living things can produce happiness, it's plausible that more life produces more happiness, and more diversity means more life. Nature isn't doing so well, because of human activity. This means that as a conscious human, being aware of this, we have a duty to change our behavior to remedy the biodiversity crisis. text/html 2024-06-24T06:56:29+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://iweinfuld.at/doku.php?id=built_with_dokuwiki_for_a_good_reason&rev=1719212189&do=diff Why I created my website using DokuWiki I've been sitting on my own name domains for a while. One reason being I sorely regretted losing a few four and five letter domains 20y ago. I make my money via Squads.com so I don't really need a personal brand, but those domains might come in handy someday. Or probably more likely, I will regret it shortly after I give them up.

If you feel the need to challenge me using that term, I expect you to read all wikipedia pages on the subject first, before discussing it with me.

It is such a powerful statement, it deserved to be repeated. Despair is an emotion described really well in Grief Alongside Water by Robert Kingett. Not giving into despair can be very hard, if it is not possible to see what else can still be done. Biologically, when under great threat, the body and mind exhibit a Freeze, Fight, Flight response.

What many people don't realize is that the fossil fuel input of our food consists for a large part of artificial fertilizer. Before synthetic fertilizer wars were fought over bird and bat shit. Except from a minor amount produced by lightning, non-synthetic fertilizer is produced by nitrogen fixating bacteria (usually in symbiosis with plants). We can increase this production by planting nitrogenfixers like legumes, or perenials like eleagnu…
