Yup. Wish I could encourage throwing runners because they'd get more sun that way but I just enjoy having them. They're hardy little dudes

I just sprinkle some berry food on top. I don't fertilize much. I'm not sure they get enough sun since they're on a covered porch. They know get a few hours each day I think
Congrats on your son! I'm sure your support is going to help them tremendously as they discover themselves
My small porch container gardens has a whole bunch of strawberry plants. They weren't super productive this year but I love my....bushes? What are strawberry plants?
Low quality information is easier to produce than high quality information
Even worse, while people prefer high quality information, the preference is weaker than other preferences, such as the desire to see things that are cute or make you angry

Never heard of it, either
It's not a straw man, the guy knows what he's talking about. Destroying biodiversity is a major problem with a lot of tree farms and tree planting programs. Tree planting doesn't HAVE to do that but that kind of management is hard to do, like the guy said
Can you not afford an air conditioner? A heatpump is only marginally more expensive
Two things
- Politics is for Power provides a pretty good model for thinking about this https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Politics-Is-for-Power/Eitan-Hersh/9781982116798
There's a lot of political hobbyism on social media in general and Lemmy is really bad for it. Take for example the constant Elon Musk rage bait. No one is doing anything productive with that information. They're just getting mad
- Social media, in general, isn't a good way to get informed. It makes you feel really in touch but when a lot of the time you're getting biased and polarizing that is often as enraging as it is unproductive
We treat politics like entertainment and it's making our politics worse. Personally I try to limit my exposure to politics that I don't think will be productive. It might feel like the most important thing in the moment but it's often a huge waste of time
That's a false dichotomy in a lot of the comments here
We do both
Carbon capture isn't so we can continue to use fossil fuels. It's because once we get to 0 emissions we still need to draw down the carbon in the atmosphere
An ounce of prevention is almost always worth a pound of cure but we're still going to want that cure because every extra tenth of a degree we can bring the Earth back to normal is going to be worth it

I can't find any evidence that they were founded by her but she did help found the climate action fund which has donated a large amount of money to them as well as Extinction Rebellion

I think she's probably genuine but that's also besides the point. Whether she has alternative motives or not all that really matters is whether the activism is helping or hurting
These are very good
